Landing New Light
Spring Street Gallery is proud to present works by Francelise Dawkins on view through August 9. Through creative interpretation, “Landing New Light” brings attention to viewing all art from a “prismatic light”. Dawkins’ brightly colored, collaged artwork amplifies a visual connection between the artwork shared with the viewer and the viewer’s need to take time to enter each form, color, and thread individually. The 34 works exhibited are all for sale with a portion of the proceeds benefitting Reverend Michael D. Bell’s community work in Saratoga Springs. “Landing New Light” is visible by appointment only by contacting Belinda Colón at This email address is being protected from spambots.
