Clarksville, TN – The paintings on view in the Crouch Gallery of the Customs House Museum are full of moody color palettes that move from all corners of the papers they have been built upon. Reappearing ravens and telephone lines live harmoniously within textures of paint. Kathleen Conover’s fascination with society’s development has led to her discovery of the beauty in transformation.
The exhibition Industrial Evolution is comprised of symbolic shapes forming stories within mixed media works.
