Nansi Lent: Enigmatic Devotions
March 1 - April 28
“Enigmatic Devotions” is a solo exhibit by Rhinebeck artist Nansi T. Lent. Lent’s current work is about the collective unconscious, the evolution of language and the urge to write. Over time the artist has invented a symbolic language that borrows from ancient symbols but represents no language system but her own, hybrid, created one, that continues to evolve with each new piece she makes. The work is meant to be read as language that has no signified meaning other than the viewers interpretation. “Mine is a contemplative practice where I explore the use of ancient symbols to evolve a new paradigm. It is a search for modern abstraction, rooted in ancient gestures of language,” the artist explains.
Nansi Lent holds a BA from Boston College in Studio Art and a Masters in Visual Arts Administration from NYU. Painting for decades, she has exhibited widely in New York’s Hudson Valley region and beyond including The Katonah Museum of Art, The Woodstock Artists Association and Museum, The Coral Springs Art Museum in Florida, Goggleworks in Reading, PA., The New York Public Library, The Starr Library inRhinebeck and in numerous co-ops and private galleries. Her work is held in several private collections. In 2018, she founded Womenswork.art, a gallery in Poughkeepsie. She is an Active Member of the Woodstock Artists Association and Museum.
