Upcoming show:

There's a Light Somewhere

September 7 - October 6, 2024

Opening Reception: September 7, 2pm-6pm

​

Christopher Burk is captivated by the night and its unique ability to transform the natural world. His paintings, which feature trees illuminated by the moon and other unseen light sources, reveal an otherworldly version of nature. In the absence of the sun’s harsh light, Burk reveals new visions of bark, leaf, and branch, lending an uncanny quality to the silhouettes and occasional details of his subjects. His use of unexpected color—teal for bark, powder blue for snow, or a pale pink for the moon—intensifies this sense of the uncanny, making the night a realm where reality and imagination merge.
