“To consider something cosmic is to look beyond the visible — to sense the quiet thread that connects us to something larger. In this body of work, I explore the space where memory, light, and form overlap. The paintings are rooted in gesture, yet tuned to a wider frequency: an atmosphere, an emotional charge, a feeling of shared resonance. The show invites reflection on vastness — not as something distant, but as something already within us.”
The Byrne Gallery is proud to announce Consider It Cosmic … the new gallery exhibition for October 2025 showcases the unique metal sculptures of J-P Müller and the abstract paintings of Joe LaMattina and Anne Marchand. These works illustrate the powerful impact of form and color on emotion and intellect, seeking to evoke a moment of personal spiritual reflection. The sculptures invite the viewer to consider the unseen causes of everyday reality and appreciation of the present moment.
The exhibit will be on display from October 1st – November 2nd and is open to the public.
