Kenise Barnes Fine Art is pleased to announce Smoke Signals in Sunlight, a two‑person exhibition featuring new work by Hudson Valley–based artists Susan English and Laura Moriarty. The exhibition brings together two artists whose practices are deeply rooted in material exploration, natural processes, and the poetics of landscape—each approaching abstraction through distinct yet resonant vocabularies.
Smoke Signals in Sunlight highlights English’s poured‑polymer paintings and Moriarty’s encaustic monoprints and sculpture. Both artists engage with time, transformation, and the physical forces that shape the natural world. Their works—layered, atmospheric, and quietly powerful—invite viewers to consider the subtle signals and shifting terrains that define our environment.
