New Show: The View From Here

The Burgwin-Wright House Gallery in Wilmington, NC
On View November 28th, 2025 - January 17th, 2026
CLOSED FOR RENOVATION DEC 15-JAN 2

"The View from Here” reflects a perspective grounded in observation, memory, and imagination. Artworks by Kathryn DeMarco and Ellie Snow navigate the space between humanity and the natural world — where identity and instinct intertwine. We invite viewers to pause with us in a moment of reflection, to consider how we see ourselves and others, and how beauty resides in the fragile, the ordinary, and the deeply personal. 

Kathryn DeMarco’s work is a celebration of portraiture through the medium of collage—where the tactile nature of cut paper meets a deep commitment to realism. In creating images of companion animals, winged creatures, and self portraits, she seeks to capture more than likeness; she aims to reveal presence, spirit, and emotional truth through layers of paper, paint, and glue.

Ellie Snow’s paintings are a means of escape, a window into a fairy-tale kind of world where she can ponder the beauty and complexity of being human, and the stories that repeat themselves through time like a pattern. Lately she has begun capturing the bits of magic found in corners of antique shops, in addition to the landscapes, plants, and animals around her woodland home.
