True Grit Art Gallery to host solo exhibit for Middleboro artist
On Saturday, April 24 from 6-8pm, True Grit Art Gallery will host an opening reception for "House", a solo exhibit of new paintings by Middleboro artist Darren Morris.
The gallery invites the public to come and meet the artist, enjoy complimentary adult beverages and snacks, and socialize with other art enthusiasts while viewing and enjoying the work of an emerging local talent. State COVID-19 guidelines will be observed. This event is free and open to everyone.
Darren Morris is a 2018 graduate of the University of Massachusetts with a BFA in painting. Besides his thesis exhibition, this is his first solo showing.
This body of work shows domestic objects viewed through the eyes of an isolated individual. With the use of cool colors in low to mid-range values, these paintings exude a somber mood. The objects become personified and take on new meaning that goes beyond their basic function.
Morris achieves this personification through the use of acrylic paint applied in an expressive and simplified manner.
The exhibit runs from April 24 through May 15. True Grit Art Gallery is located at 38 Center St in Middleboro, MA. Regular gallery hours are Tuesday 11-4, Wednesday through Friday 10-5 and Saturday 10-3.
