TREE OF LIFE
The inaugural exhibition of Jenny up the Hill, Tree of Life, brings together the work of four contemporary painters. They share an interest in elementary, natural motifs which, transformed in paint, become symbols of life and death. The paintings evoke different ways of being rooted, or aligning with the environment. Most of all, the works are celebrations of color, form and the difference that art can make by saying things without words.
Participating artists: Béatrice Dreux (Vienna), Marc Mulders (Baest, the Netherlands), Lucas Reiner (Los Angeles/Porto) and Maria Vyrra (Athens).
