Lamont Gallery Presents: Strange Kin
Strange Kin
September 2 – November 22, 2025
RECEPTION: September 18, 5:00-7:00pm
Exhibiting Artists: Jennifer Angus, Catherine Chalmers, Kate Kato, Ruth Marsh, and Britt Ransom
Strange Kin is a swarm of tiny critters (real and faux) that playfully inspect and reimagine the miniature marvels that live among us. The five artists on view embrace their affection and comfort in entomology, using arthropods as their muses and collaborators. Each artist explores how creatures, ranging from crickets to bees, can work within an artistic practice rather than merely being the inspiration for it. Collectively, the works on view braid pure aesthetic joy with stinging commentary on environmental issues, species decline, and conservation.
Come see what all the buzz is about!
