Paintings by Benigna Chilla

Higgins Art Gallery at Cape Cod Community College is excited to be showing the stunning  paintings of Artist-In-Residence Benigna Chilla. Inspired by geometric patterns found in architecture, textiles and nature, Chilla explores both organic and constructed geometric shapes, organized through symmetry. The large-scale paintings were created after a 2012 stay in Bhutan. Actual texture is embedded onto the canvas, layered with natural pigment like turmeric, saffron and minerals.

A Gallery Reception will be held Wednesday September 28^th from 10:30-1:00 p.m. in the Tilden Arts Center lobby. The exhibit runs through September 29^th. The Higgins Gallery is open daily Monday-Friday from 9-5. Tilden Arts Center, 2240 Iyannough Rd., West Barnstable 02668.  Box Office: 508-362-2131 ext. 4484. www.capecod.edu/higgins.
