Jessica Dalrymple – Urbanscapes
Jessica Dalrymple’s show “Urbanscapes” exhibits paintings that celebrate “nature in the city”. The show includes landscapes of NYC shorelines inspired by past, present, and future imagery such as historic salt marshes along Brooklyn’s Gowanus Bay, apple orchards beside Newtown Creek estuary, and futuristic “green” solutions atop present day infastructure.
