Charcoal drawing of fire and scorched forest

Anna Kaye: Finding Light

Engross yourself in detailed charcoal drawings of fire and scorched forests.

Feb. 15 – May 20, 2025

Anna Kaye explores the duality of loss and regrowth in nature through the lens of wildfire as a cyclical part of a forest’s vitality. As wildfires increase in size and intensity, making it harder for ecosystems to recover, Kaye's work examines the complexity of fire's ecological impact. Emphasizing hope, Finding Light highlights transformation and regrowth as plants and animals return to burned forests.
