Art File Feature: Carla Aurich 🎨✨
For Carla Aurich, color is always the starting point. Her paintings explore the tension, conversation, and unexpected relationships between colors drawn from both the natural and artificial worlds. Through the interplay of structure and chance, materials and surfaces come together in ways that feel both intuitive and carefully considered. 🌈🌀
Rooted in abstraction and inspired by early Modernist and Color Field painters, Aurich distills forms and colors from the observed world into compositions that invite clarity and contemplation. In an oversaturated image culture, her work offers a quiet space to slow down and look. ✨
A painter, printmaker, and mixed-media artist, Aurich lives and works between Manhattan and Newburgh, New York. She grew up on the plains of Nebraska and received her MFA from the University of Iowa. 🎨

Works by Jane Zweibel - "Spill", "Vigil", and "Through the Notch". Currently on view - Jane Zweibel: “Dreams in Action” in the Project Room and Megan Marlatt: “Myths and Mummers” in the Main Gallery. Exhibitions are on view from September 1–26, 2026. All works are available for sale on Artsy [] .

From the Press Release — “Dreams in Action” is a series of vibrant acrylic paintings by Jane Zweibel exploring human experience and female identity. Utilizing collage as a point of departure, Zweibel combines abstract shapes and colors with free-associative figurative imagery drawn from memory, psychology, mythology, art history, and personal and collective experience. The resulting paintings become non-linear narratives—invented dream worlds where the boundaries between past and present, real and mythic, are indistinct.

From the Press Release — “Myths and Mummers” features new paintings and big head masks by Megan Marlatt. Stemming from her creative research into European pre-Lenten carnival culture and its relationship to the spring equinox, Marlatt’s new work addresses fluctuating seasons and the challenge of climate change. Figures of folklore, including Jack Frost, and personifications of the seasons, such as Persephone, are positioned within the landscape to narrate stories of transformation and loss.

Art File Feature: Helen Ziga 🎨✨🧩
Helen Ziga’s Stillness in Structure series exists between painting and sculpture. Layered geometric forms, luminous surfaces, and subtle shifts in dimension create works that change with the light and the viewer’s perspective. ✨🔷
Working with wood, paper, and acrylic, Ziga explores the relationship between structure and stillness—using geometry as a framework for balance, reflection, and quiet order rather than control. Designed for slow looking, each piece reveals new details over time. 🌀🌿
Based in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, Ziga has exhibited her work across the U.S. and approaches both art and life with a thoughtful, self-directed spirit. 🎨🌱
