Art Exhibit at Phelps-Hatheway House

Harmonizing Four, a new series of fiber constructions by Suffield artist and resident Lynne Centore, will be on display at the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden (55 South Main Street, Suffield), from May 6 through October 3. Centore describes Harmonizing Four as “an elaboration of the themes and processes” explored in Bits and Pieces, her November 2022 exhibit at Suffield’s Kent Memorial Library. As with that exhibit, the textiles assembled in Harmonizing Four are created of found fabric that is hand-painted, sewn together manually or machine stitched, and layered with additional materials. The resulting works evoke the artist’s emotional response to landscape, memory, and observations of contemporary life. Photo provided by the author Great Pond acrylic on fabric by Lynne Centore

Centore received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Connecticut and a Master’s in Arts Education from Central Connecticut State University.
