From August 22 to September 26, 2024, Maren Brown exhibited her latest egg tempera and acrylic paintings at the Coldwell Banker Gallery in Northampton, MA, as part of the city’s monthly Arts Night Out. The exhibition featured several works from her Sacred Bones series, inspired by anatomical drawings she created in high school and rediscovered in 2022. Drawn to both the scientific clarity and metaphorical resonance of skeletons, Brown explores bones as symbols of what connects us in life and what endures in death. Also on display were pieces from her Travelogues series, inspired by her journeys around the world and the impressions left by the places she encountered.
