LnS Gallery is proud to announce the inclusion of a work by represented artist, Jennifer Basile, into the permanent collection of the Lowe Art Museum at the University of Miami. Her striking work Launch Site, Coot Bay Pond (2021) has been acquired by the Lowe Art Museum through the generous support of Bonnie & Peter Dockter.
Master printmaker Basile captures the wonder of the Florida Everglades in the magnificent large-scale print. Among black and white cut-out silhouettes, the artist stresses the transitory nature of the scene. Launch Site Coot Bay Pond (2021) not only confronts the real dangers imposed upon the threatened ecosystem but exudes the beauty contained within the landscape. The wonderment of the work lies in Basile’s artistic activism which conveys her ardent message of environmental conservation.
In Basile’s own words, “My message is simple, to capture the environment in all of its pure and natural beauty, before it is permanently changed.”
