Ephraim, Wis. (August 24, 2026) – The Hardy Gallery is pleased to announce the final exhibit of the 2026 season, Stories + Senses: Reflections in Nature. Join us for the Opening Reception on Friday, August 28th, 5:30–7pm to view work from three artists all working in our region: Mary Ellen Sisulak (Ellison Bay), Naomi Moes-Jenkins (Egg Harbor/De Pere), and Marilyn Prescott (Appleton).
These artists are all engaged in a process of translating what they see in their immediate environments. The surfaces of Prescott’s abstract paintings are rich with references to her walks along the Fox River. They are paintings that reward slow, close viewing. The materiality of many of Moes-Jenkins’ sculptures seem to be pulled right out of Prescott’s paintings and create a sense of entering into a world of mythology. Sisulak’s work, created from materials ranging from leather to water-soluble encaustic, fills the viewer with the sense of magic and mystery present when you spend time deep in the forest.
Hear from the artists at the Artist Panel Discussion on September 9th, 6-7pm. The exhibit is on view August 18th–October 11th.
