Brookfield Arts Commission Presents Guest Artist Katushka Millones

Contemporary artist Katushka Millones is currently showcasing her latest works at The Brookfield Town Hall, 100 Pocono Road, Brookfield

The Brookfield Arts Commission is proud to present the works of Katushka Millones in a display entitled “An Intimate Encounter with Nature." According to Katushka: “For me, nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration. I'm fascinated by skies, vast lands, and the presence of water. Having been an observer for many years of traveling, I have accumulated an enormous bank of images that are accompanied by sweet memories - not only of happiness, but solitude as well. With each piece I'm hoping to create a poetic and magical moment that reveals itself in massive quietness, the absence of obstacles, and the presence of boundless land. My goal is to have the viewer bear witness to, and be absorbed by, the scene - a scene trapped in time, of sounds and breeze, of light and shade, of movement and repose. The works I'm showing in this event are inspired by hikes, photographs, and painting en plein air. These paintings are the result of direct observation and the recollection of the emotions that I felt observing those scenes.”

An architect graduate from her birth country, Peru, Katushka has always found satisfaction in the arts. Having experimented with music, photography, and technical drafting, she finds her best in her art studio, where her imagination has no boundaries. Moved by Turner's dramatic skies, Kandinsky's colorful palette, and Cornell's assemblages, her present work explores the relationship between the land and the sea- where a welcoming moment of solitude awaits the viewer.
“An Intimate Encounter with Nature” by artist Katushka Millones at The Brookfield Town Hall at 100 Pocono Rd. Brookfield, CT 06804, running until September 30, 2024.
