Molly Smith
In Molly Smith's Float a rocky point and stand of pines anchor the right edge of the composition; beyond them, water and sky dissolve into cool greys, blues, and greens, mirrored across a forested shoreline. Painted in watercolor from direct observation during a family kayaking trip, Smith compresses the expansiveness of the landscape into an intimate stillness.

Meet Molly Smith
For decades, Molly Smith has explored the landscape through deeply observational paintings, drawings, and sculptures, now rooted in her rural Massachusetts surroundings. Working from direct experience and attentive study, Smith captures fleeting shifts of light, season, and atmosphere, revealing what she describes as the “divine perfection” of the natural world.

Exhibitions
Strawberry Moon, named for June’s first full moon and the wild strawberry harvest, presents recent work by Christy Gast, Fabienne Lasserre, Halsey Rodman, and Molly Smith, exploring bodies, landscape, desire, and the scales of time.
Vernal explores how artists return to the natural world as a site where memory, meaning, and material change converge. Featuring work by eleven artists, the exhibition asks us to reconsider the landscape in this moment of climate disruption, where reverence and reckoning coexist.
