Conduit Gallery will present the third solo exhibition of work by Catherine Howe titled "Miracle Grow," the New York-based painter's latest exhibition of large and small scale floral abstractions.

In Howe’s newest paintings, the medium is the message. Known for the alchemy she uses in creating her own paint materials, Howe’s paintings articulate lyrical representations of flora and landscape while employing atypical mediums such as flocking, metal leaf, glass micro beads and interference micas. These enigmatic mediums engage ambient light and appear to fluctuate tonally between gold, silver and opalescence in response to light levels and the viewers' perspective, while the thickly articulated forms offer tactile cues to a visceral experience.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will on view through December 31.
