TWO-PERSON SHOW
KARMA
MOONS AND ANGELS
Ann Craven & Reggie Burrows Hodges
July 31 – September 19, 2021
Karma is pleased to present a two-person exhibition featuring
angel paintings by Reggie Burrows Hodges and moon paintings
by Ann Craven. The show is set in the former St James Catholic
church at 70 Main Street in Thomaston, Maine. The angels and moons
on display symbolically and literally explore the notion of light found
in darkness. Deep hues of black and midnight blue set the stage for
the heavenly icons, capturing them with a painterly effulgence—or
radiating glow. Appearing throughout the canon of art history, these
enduring celestial subjects have served as protectors and messengers.
Craven and Hodges create warm and inviting interpretations of these
guiding lights that allow the viewer to, in Hodges’s words, “offer up
and be offered back.”
