 The upcoming exhibition at Mercantile Coffee House is Camilla Cowan: Mola. Camilla Cowan is a painter and printmaker living and working in Dallas, Texas. These series of paintings are an exploration of her interest and contemplation of pattern, particularly in the molas she admires and collects. For the past decade, she has slowly built and accumulated patterns, combining them with stark color contrasts. Cowan explores the subtle spatial relations in plaids and geometric designs as well as the color interactions between light and dark. She alternates between painting and printing, enjoying each process and the contrasts between them which engage her work. Beginning in 2001, Cowan has studied painting and printmaking at SMU in Dallas, TX.

The opening reception with the artist will be on April 30, 2011 from 5:30pm to 7pm. The exhibition will be on view through May 28, 2011.
