Haven Gallery presents 'Yokai', a group art exhibition of new works inspired by supernatural entities and spirits in Japanese folklore.

Selected art by Phoenix Chan, Nina Listyani (Laverinne), Tom Bagshaw, Hiro and Hieu Nguyen (Kelogsloops).

Currently on view at Haven Gallery in Northport, New York is artist Laverinne's solo exhibition, "The Story Inside A Brooch, Beside A Window."

Laverinne's latest exhibition offers a captivating visual exploration of memory, using flowers and animals to express personal emotions and stories. By incorporating flora and fauna alongside the artist's female protagonists, Laverinne extends the narrative through symbolic motifs, a technique that has been employed throughout art history and literature to enrich storytelling. The artist's delicate watercolor application creates an almost ethereal effect, accentuated by striking contrasts and bursts of color saturation, which together evoke a sense of dreamlike wonder.

The exhibition's jewel-toned palette is reminiscent of precious gemstones, reflecting the exhibition title and invoking the sentimentality of heirlooms or cherished brooches. Laverinne's female figures gracefully interact with the vibrant colors and gradients, connecting to a world characterized by symbiosis and flourishing beauty. Each composition is further enhanced by intricate and ornate framing, emphasizing the intimacy and value of these captured moments as unique treasures to be cherished.

Laverinne’s “Secret Memories.”

Currently on view at Haven Gallery in Northport, New York is artist Laverinne’s solo exhibition, “Secret Memories.”

Laverinne paints elegant and serene watercolor works with inspiration stemming from mythology, Japanese Manga, art history and nature. Each piece offers a whimsical female subject sharing an intimate connection with her animal companions. These delicate subjects merge with their animal counterparts with a vibrant unification of color. Not only do the subjects connect with animals, but also with varying flora, fauna, and magical objects painted in corresponding colors. An admirer can immediately notice a uniform focus of color in each piece. This aids in the idea that all creatures in the work are connected in a meaningful way. Each subject is adorned in grandeur fashions, including detailed headdresses, all flowing effortlessly throughout the composition.

Laverinne explains, “For the concept, I drew each painting as having an item, or a place, that can have secret memories in it. A castle, that can have a lot of memories when someone makes an important decision inside. A clock that can show a time of a moment that you will never forget. A key that keeps your box of memories. A lake where memories were hiding at the bottom. A moon where the wolves howl brings back all memories into life. And memories of someone that you cherished when you were a black dress, and memories of the vow that you say in your white dress. Finally, a memory of the braveness that is delivered inside of a flower.”
