A/Symmetrical Worlds, a duo show of work by Carol Levine and Helen Quinn, opens at the Headwaters Arts Center with an Artist Reception on February 22 from 4:00-6:00p. The Artists Reception is free and open to all and the exhibit will be on view through April 5. The Feb. 22 date represents a postponement from an original earlier date. There will be an artist talk with both of the artists at the Headwaters Arts Center on March 15th, noon to 2p. For complete details, visit roxburyartsgroup.org.
The artworks in A/Symmetrical Worlds are full of paradoxes and iconic and archetypal shapes that ignite the viewer’s imagination. The artists offer us two very different worlds– between Levine’s colored pencil, and Quinn’s gouache, collage and ceramic– the play between their symmetry and asymmetry compels us to explore themes of balance, movement, growth and protection.
Born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in New Jersey, Carol Levine received a BFA from Pratt Institute with a concentration in painting, and after graduation studied philosophy at the University of Hartford. A recipient of New York’s CAPS Fellowship, Levine’s work has been exhibited nationally. She currently lives and has a studio in Stamford
Helen Quinn is a visual artist living between Jackson Heights, Queens and Treadwell, NY. She works in a variety of media including silkscreen, gouache, paper mache, and clay. Helen has shown her work throughout New York state and internationally including in the Czech Republic and Norway. She is the recipient of two New Works Grants from the Queens Council of the Arts in 2020 and 2022. She has attended numerous residencies including a year-long program in Japan with the Henry Luce Foundation and more recently at Poco a Poco in Oaxaca, Mexico. She holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art.
