Three Artists, One Exhibition

Emily Phillips

Emily Phillips

Inspired by the forests of New Brunswick’s Fundy region, Phillips creates vibrant oil paintings that capture sunlight filtering through the trees.
Meghan McKnight

McKnight explores nature’s patterns and processes through watercolours of seed-like and cellular forms, alongside richly textured acrylic paintings.
Erica Beyea

From personal photographs, Beyea paints quiet moments of everyday connection, exploring themes of memory, touch, and human relationships.

A closer look at the exhibition

Planted Light brings together three painters who pay close attention to the living world. Each looks at it from a different distance: the forest, the table and the cell. Across those distances, all three treat light as something that grows, roots and gathers in what it touches.

Shown together, the works echo one another.
