This itty bitty painting is including in @lukewhittaker191 ‘s show @utopiaupstate opening this Saturday, May 2 from 4-7 pm. You should come, it will be a blast with fabulous paintings and cocktails 🍸 🍹

Speakeasy Happy Hour provides a unique opportunity to engage an audience in the perception of art by exploring the question, How can art be tasted, smelt, or touched when it demands the privacy of its personal space? Curation exists to take disparate artworks and initiate an emotional or physical response through the viewer’s personal experience. Speakeasy Happy Hour endeavors to bridge the physical boundaries between art and the audience by pairing specific drinks with the already curated selection of artwork. Gallery-goers are encouraged to investigate the artwork, soaking in colors, scenes, and figures while exploring its essence captured in the paired cocktail’s taste, smell, and touch.

Artists: Abbi Kenny, Eden Taff, Hannah Lupton Reinhard, Luke Morrison, Noelle Timmons, and Sylvie Mayer

Hudson Valley-based painter @abbihkenny works within one of art history’s oldest traditions: the painted still life. ⁠
⁠
Since the Dutch Golden Age, artists have used food to explore themes of abundance, mortality and the passage of time, and Kenny’s approach to the subject similarly transcends mere documentation. ⁠
⁠
Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2021, she developed a deep, personal connection to food as a lens through which she could reflect on memory, tradition and personal identity. ⁠
⁠
Observer’s @christa__terry caught up with Kenny to ask about memory, paintmaking and what a recipe can reveal about a life. ⁠

Played a round with a bunch of new ways to work on and off the canvas collaging with paint. Kind of based on the remnants and ideas for other paintings. Hoping to get more time in the studio during these doldrums of winter ❄️
