February 2022

“Moments Unlost” represents a collection of traditional works of fine art by ShawnaLee W. Kwashnak that capture moments in time that are now “unlost”. Children grow quickly, pets we love weave in and out or our lives, and moments we experience and share come and go fluidly throughout our lives. Did we really notice? Will we remember? Are these moments lost, or gone from our recollection? Were we misguided to think that a snapshot would truly savor our precious moments to keep? What happens when an artist takes notice?

Each work of art will have information to engage the viewer that also promotes thoughtful reflection. Information about art classes will be shared in the display cases. Award winning artist, ShawnaLee W. Kwashnak, offers portraits of children, pets, horses, homes in Charcoals or oils. She is the recipient of a Grant from the FY20 CT Artist Respond awarded by DECD/CT Office of the Arts for teaching pandemic portraiture to youth.
