Opening on April 24 at the Knox Gallery is Nathan Lawson’s The Mask

Knows: Animal Forms and Silent Watching. Please enjoy the artist’s

animal sculptural forms rendered with various approaches to handling

fibers, and share in an opening reception on Friday evening, April 24

from 5:30-7 pm.

Lawton is a Berkshire native who studied illustration at the School of

Visual Arts in New York City. He and his family decided to settle in the

Berkshires where he continues his website design business and pursues

development of his art.

This exhibition marks his first exploration into sculpture, and utilizes the

everyday material of cardboard as a fibrous material, in strips and

solids. More broadly, the artist states that “these pieces reflect my

longstanding interest in image-making, storytelling, exploring the space

between visibility and concealment.”

Our exhibit is the public premier of Lawson’s masks! Please join the

artist and your neighbors for the reception on the opening evening.
