A joint exhibition by sister and brother artists Angelena McQuarter and Douglas McQuarter

Between Place and Memory brings together the distinct yet interconnected practices of sister and brother artists Angelena McQuarter and Douglas McQuarter. Through folk art and landscape, the exhibition explores how environments shape identity, history, and lived experience—revealing the quiet dialogue between where we are and what we carry.

Angelena McQuarter’s folk art centers memory, culture, and lived experience. Drawing from tradition, symbolism, and personal history, her work elevates everyday narratives often overlooked or erased. Figures, patterns, and visual storytelling function as acts of preservation—transforming memory into something visible, tactile, and enduring. Her work speaks to inherited stories and emotional truths passed through generations.

Douglas McQuarter’s landscape works move beyond depiction, treating land not as background but as presence. Fields, horizons, and open spaces hold emotional weight, suggesting memory embedded in terrain. His work invites viewers to slow down and consider place as something felt as much as seen—marked by time, atmosphere, and absence.
