Duxbury Clipper - January 10, 2024
Helen Bumpus Gallery, Paintings – In the exhibit “Unfolding Time,” South Shore artist Stephanie Roberts-Camello draws connections between family mementos and her abstract, 3-D encaustic paintings. Roberts-Camello incorporates letters she found from the 1920s through the 1940s written by members of her family, who were cowboys and farmers in West Texas. Once Roberts-Camello incorporated those letters into her paintings, she began to see them as metaphors for struggles, endurance, and change – a tangible reference to the passing of time. The exhibit runs through the end of February. The gallery is located at Duxbury Free Library.

DUXBURY – "Flights," an exhibition of oil paintings by Framingham resident Patricia Bossange, is on view at the Helen Bumpus Gallery in Duxbury through the end of February.
Whether painting a landscape or a portrait, Bossange is interested in capturing the impact of light and the passage of time on the people and objects in her life. For Bossange, “It is a perpetual challenge – what could be more difficult and elusive than capturing a trick of light or a moment in time?”
Celebrating those who support the arts

The history of art is filled with stories of altruistic people who have donated their time and energy to bringing the fine arts to their communities. The Helen Bumpus Gallery is a prime example of a collection of women and men who have made a similar commitment, giving of themselves to further the visual arts.
The paintings, photographs and drawings by six members of the Bumpus Gallery’s Board of Directors, who work year round to bring exhibitions by regional artists to Duxbury, are currently on exhibit at the gallery.
