This exhibition features twenty-two paintings, pastels, and drawings by Shelley Haven that map the
geologic history of rocks, cliffs, canyons, and ravines with layers of line, form, color, and tone. Haven,
a Bronx-based artist, finds the complexity of rock formations a compelling inspiration that express
nature’s resilient response to the challenges of time. Nature’s places of creative transformation and
survival have been the focus of Haven’s studio practice for thirty years. She inspires others to be
present and engaged in nature, to be healed and strengthened, and to advocate for its preservation.
In-person through June 29
