Light & Process
2022-03-01 - 2022-04-30, 2022-03-01 00:00 - 2022-04-30 23:59 | Duxbury Free Library, 77 Alden Street, Duxbury, MA, 02231, United States
Artist’s Statement – STILL LIFE
In my studio are southwest facing windows. The light streams in at varying angles during the course of the year and I am mesmerized by the way it transforms whatever it hits to make it exceptional. The objects and space change each minute the level of light moves across the plane. I find myself intensely observing and absorbing the changes as if I were watching a movie. At times, all I can do is stand in intense study and watch the light work its magic—all of the sudden hours have passed.
In my process, I am struck by a particular subject—Light and the way it affects objects, Light as it hits a sur- face and moves across it, the color of Light. I study the motif through drawings and paintings to see where it leads. Working in series helps me explore subtle elements in the composition. I am constantly questioning what I am seeing and doing. The work develops through reworking, redrawing, turning the substrate I am working on and imposing images on top, scraping, sanding, adding and subtracting media. Through this process, they reveal a history of the workings, as in a palimpsest. I try not to hold anything precious.

"Flights" by Patricia Bossange
2022-01-01 00:00 - 2022-02-28 23:59, 2022-01-01 - 2022-02-28 | Duxbury Free Library, 77 Alden Street, Duxbury, MA, 02231, United States
The Featured Artist for the Months of January and February at Duxbury Free Library is, Patricia Bossange
Artist’s Statement
I am a painter and a musician who possesses two degrees in English literature. In trying to piece together how these disparate elements influence my art, I realize I have always wanted to be part of something beautiful and add to the dialogue of creativity. When I think about why I paint what I paint, I realize that whether I am painting a landscape or a portrait of my daughter, I am really just attempting to paint light and the passage of time, and their effects on the people and objects in my life. It is a perpetual challenge – what could be more difficult and elusive than capturing a trick of light, or a moment in time?
Thus, I am always striving to improve – which is why I study with the amazing Carol O’Malia (omalia.com).
I am currently focusing on oil painting but I also work in various other media such as acrylics, pastel, ink, and pencil, as well as collages with made with strips of paper.
I sell my work via my website, patriciabossange.com and by commission. Contact: pbossange@gmail.com.
Thank you, Helen Bumpus Gallery, for this opportunity. This is just the tip of the iceberg. There’s much more beneath and to come.
