SUMMARY:Beth McKay - Depression Incarnate
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition round includes works provided by Beth McKay which will be on view in the First Floor Ramp Gallery from November 26\, 2025 – February 28\, 2026.  Lowe Mill A&E invites patrons and art lovers to join us for Open Studio Night\, a building-wide experience when our over 150 studios will be open to the public.  The evening also includes receptions for all seven of our gallery spaces. This series gives the public a chance to meet and interact with visiting artists and discuss their work as it is on display and available for purchase. Come out\, enjoy a pleasant evening\, and maybe you’ll find that special piece of art that speaks to you!  The Open Studio Night reception is Saturday\, February 28 from 5-7 pm. \n  \nAbout the exhibit: \nDepression Incarnate is an exploration of pain\, grief\, and heartbreak — a reflection of how I process complex emotions through art. For me\, painting is not just creation; it’s communication. Art allows me to express feelings that are too heavy or complicated to put into words\, transforming sorrow into something visual\, tangible\, and healing.  \nThe majority of my work consists of surrealist self-portraits that embody emotional states rather than likeness. Each piece represents a chapter of my healing journey — navigating loss\, divorce\, and rebirth. After the sudden loss of my father\, I turned to painting as a way to process the overwhelming grief that followed. My oil on canvas Underneath represents that experience\, portraying myself in contemplation of death\, grief\, and the cyclical nature of existence and reincarnation.  \nWhen I went through a divorce in 2020\, I once again turned inward\, using art to process heartache\, loss\, and newfound freedom. In Organs\, a nude female figure removes her lungs\, tongue\, and brain — symbols of suffocation\, silence\, and overthinking — yet keeps her heart intact\, a quiet act of resilience and hope. Wrapped in a vine of white flowers\, she slowly unravels herself from the binds that once held her.  \nIn Wallflower\, another self-portrait\, I explore the feeling of invisibility and the process of re-emergence. The figure stitches her own heart back together with needle and thread as she begins to separate herself from the wallpaper that once concealed her\, symbolizing self-recovery and rediscovery.  \nPoppy Heart may appear as a heart blooming with delicate flowers\, but the poppy carries deeper meaning — beauty intertwined with danger\, addiction\, and loss. This piece is a tribute to loved ones lost to addiction\, and to the complex love that remains for those still fighting it. To honor their memory\, 20% of the proceeds from Poppy Heart will be donated to Not One More Alabama\, a nonprofit that provides education\, hope\, and compassionate support to families affected by addiction.  \nMy art comes directly from the heart. It is born from grief but rooted in resilience — a visual testament to the strength of the human spirit and the healing power of creation. \n  \nAbout the artist: \nBeth McKay is a multidisciplinary artist based in Huntsville\, Alabama\, where she has lived most of her life. With over 25 years of experience\, Beth has honed her skills in oil painting\, watercolor\, and screen printing\, crafting deeply personal and evocative works. A graduate of the University of Montevallo (2002) with a concentration in painting and a minor in graphic design\, Beth further pursued her passion for art education at the University of Alabama in Huntsville\, earning a degree in Art Education in 2016 to foster the love of art in young minds.  \nAs a member of the Alabama Women’s Caucus for Art (ALWCA)\, Beth has been an active voice in the regional art community. Her studio is located at Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment\, where she continues to create and experiment. Her work is often inspired by the legendary Frida Kahlo\, with Beth herself serving as the main subject of her pieces. Through self-portraiture\, Beth explores themes of identity\, vulnerability\, depression and the female experience.  \nBeth’s recent works have been showcased in numerous exhibitions\, including the Curated Gallery show No Place Like Home (August-October 2025) and The Feminine—Body\, Mind\, and Spirit at Alabama A&M University in 2025. Her painting “Organs” was featured in The Feminine I ALWCA Art Show at Alabama A&M. In 2023\, her paintings “Poppy Heart” and “Cage” were displayed in the Juried Art Teachers’ Biennial Exhibition at the Huntsville Museum of Art.  \nBeth has also contributed to public art projects\, including Time for aRt EVOLUTION\, a collaborative public art display in downtown Huntsville in 2020. Her creative journey has earned her several accolades\, including second place for Mechanical Owl at the UAH Graphic Design Art Show and an Honorable Mention for Underneath at the UAH Juried Art Show in 2017.  \nThrough her work\, Beth McKay continues to challenge the boundaries of self-expression and create art that speaks to both personal and universal experiences. \n

SUMMARY:Alejandra González Díaz - Seguimos Aquí | a Puerto Rican Art Show
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition round includes works provided by Alejandra González Díaz which will be on view in the Second Floor Connector Gallery from November 26\, 2025 – February 28\, 2026.  Lowe Mill A&E invites patrons and art lovers to join us for Open Studio Night\, a building-wide experience when our over 150 studios will be open to the public.  The evening also includes receptions for all seven of our gallery spaces. This series gives the public a chance to meet and interact with visiting artists and discuss their work as it is on display and available for purchase. Come out\, enjoy a pleasant evening\, and maybe you’ll find that special piece of art that speaks to you!  The Open Studio Night reception is Saturday\, February 28 from 5-7 pm. \n  \nAbout the exhibit: \nPrideful celebration meets raw historical introspection in Seguimos Aquí\, the first solo exhibit by multidisciplinary artist Alejandra González Díaz. This Puerto Rican art show has a central message: it embraces the dynamic spirit of Puerto Rican culture while inviting viewers to confront and reflect on its complex and often painful history.\nCurated with passion and purpose\, this exhibition fuses visual installations that explore both triumphant cultural narratives\, such as the preservation of traditions and indigenous ancestry\, and challenging episodes of the past\, including eugenics\, mass sterilizations\, and colonization. Witness how each artwork\, enriched by Hispanic\, Indigenous\, and African influences\, reflects a community that has transformed adversity into resilience and hope.\nAbout the artist:\nAlejandra González Díaz (b. Caguas\, Puerto Rico) is an interdisciplinary artist and model based in Atlanta\, raised in Tampa. She centers Puerto Rican culture and her life experiences in her work. Alejandra creates visual art\, developing a neo-expressionist and surrealist style across acrylic paintings\, papier-mâché masks\, and small sculptures. Influenced by artists like Frida Kahlo\, Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Salvador Dali\, and Gustav Klimt\, her pieces explore survival\, identity\, and communal care\, with art serving as testimony and a lifeline amid mental health and life challenges.\nAfter moving to Atlanta to pursue art full-time\, Alejandra broadened her practice to include performance‑inflected projects and collaborative shoots as extensions of her visual language. She creates art from a place of radical honesty\, inviting others to start where they are\, keep going\, and find strength in shared creativity.\n

SUMMARY:Leigh Ann Edmonds  - The Memory Wall
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition round includes works provided by  Leigh Ann Edmonds  which will be on view in the First Floor West Gallery from November 26\, 2025 – February 28\, 2026.  Lowe Mill A&E invites patrons and art lovers to join us for Open Studio Night\, a building-wide experience when our over 150 studios will be open to the public.  The evening also includes receptions for all seven of our gallery spaces. This series gives the public a chance to meet and interact with visiting artists and discuss their work as it is on display and available for purchase. Come out\, enjoy a pleasant evening\, and maybe you’ll find that special piece of art that speaks to you!  The Open Studio Night reception is Saturday\, February 28 from 5-7 pm. \n  \nAbout the exhibit: \nThe Memory Wall is an exploration with how we use photography as memory\, connection  and conversation as she emphasizes how photographs are the memories we leave behind  after we are gone. They become stories of our life experiences\, memories of past travels\,  and they document loved ones we once knew.  \nLeigh Ann is wanting viewers to reflect on how we often use photographs to build  memories and stories to share with others. It is through photo collage\, traditional matte  and frame and her classic approach to photography with vintage film cameras that she  wants others to feel they have stepped into another era of photography.  \nHer use of black and white film helps to create a nostalgic and reminiscent approach of  today’s modern world we live in. The images are a continuation of what was and what is and how our memory connects the past to the present.  \n  \nAbout the artist: \nLeigh Ann Edmonds is a documentary photographer from Birmingham\, Alabama. Her work  predominantly explores the land\, culture and people of the American South and is often  described as timeless\, gritty and soulful. Leigh Ann is the 2025 recipient for the Gay Burke Memorial Fellowship from the Alabama State Council on the Arts. She studied under the late Gay Burke at UA and obtained a BA in  Studio Art from the University of Alabama in 2004 with a concentration in photography.  \nLeigh Ann believes that her work is a journal of her life\, the people she meets and the  places she explores and hopes to document in a way that helps to commemorate and  preserve the era in which she lives.
