Reflections is a solo show of abstract original prints and paintings inspired by the coast of Maine by artist Brooke Lambert. Lambert uses materials to create patterns and tangles that represent areas in tidepools or on the ocean floor, symbolizing the darker times we all must get through. She then paints the prints with luminous colors that pour through the cracks and crevices, shining a light that represents hope.
