Nichole Gronvold-Roller - Daylight Between

January 9 - February 6, 2026

Artist Statement
“Daylight Between” examines the quiet beauty of ordinary moments.  Fleeting observations made while moving through familiar spaces and noticing shifting light, patterned wallpaper, textiles, and the softened edges shaped by personal adornments. Mindful of how the body navigates the constrictions and expansions of a home, the bending and folding of planes within the work guide viewers through these implied movements. Blending geometric abstraction with organic motifs drawn from interior design influences such as House of Hackney, Architectural Digest, and the history of wallpaper, the exhibition brings together shaped canvases, stackable ceramic and panel works, and wood sculpture.  Interpreting visual fragments of domestic architecture, “Daylight Between” explores everyday life, memories of lived-in places, and the layered complexities of personal experience.
