Le Marais, The Marsh

Louisiana resident and artist Jill Hackney celebrates twenty years of representation at Ann Connelly Fine Art in a March exhibition called Le Marais, The Marsh, which will also represent the grand opening of the gallery’s new location at 1670 Lobdell Avenue, suite 100. Hackney’s work begins with photography, catching a serendipitous moment in nature and bringing those images back to the studio to interpret through her paints. Hackney’s newest series highlights the surreal beauty of Louisiana’s native wetlands: illuminated Spanish moss, dancing reflections in black waters, and the subtle bursts of color hidden within dense fauna. Join the artist at an opening reception tonight from 5:30 pm–7:30 pm.
