Andrea Guay’s works “are reflections of her personality: spontaneous, contemplative and deliberate.” This exhibition is a continuation of her studies in “an attempt to understand place. It reflects her feelings and experiences in a given location at a particular point in time, layered with both personal narrative and studied elements such as history, culture, and language.”

With this exhibition, Guay explores the concept of place and in her words, “Place is often understood as fixed—a location, a boundary, a destination. Place, In Transit challenges that assumption. Organized into six thematic sections, the exhibition examines place as something constructed, marked, imagined, accumulated, observed, and ultimately inhabited.”

Guay received a BA in architecture with a minor in economics from Wellesley College and completed the Two Cities Program: New York/Paris at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. She was awarded Best in Show at the Visalia Taste the Arts Juried Competition in Visalia, CA, in 2011. She was the recipient of a Student Fellowship Award for the 1989 International Design Conference in Aspen: Italy the design of 999 Cities. Currently, she maintains a studio in the west Dallas’ Tin District and in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. In her free time, she teaches art to all ages.

The opening reception is Thursday, March 26, from 2-4 p.m. with an artist talk at 2:15 p.m.
