Uprooted: Studies in Fragility and Loss, a two-person exhibition featuring the work of Claire Sherwood and Lawre Stone, brings together two artists whose practices examine material transformation, vulnerability, and the emotional weight carried by physical and psychological landscapes.
In Uprooted, Sherwood and Stone respectively explore themes of loss and renewal through distinct yet deeply resonant visual languages. Together, their work invites viewers to consider what is discarded, what endures, and how meaning is shaped through acts of preservation and change.
The exhibit, talk and reception are free and open to the public.

Garden: A site specific installation by Thomas Lail
Ongoing in the Administration Building Atrium
Garden, Professor Thomas Lail’s oversized rendering of a William Morris wallpaper pattern, scales the trellis of the Administration Building’s glass atrium, reflecting on the history of glassed-in winter gardens, cultivated nature, and the dream of Utopian architectures of transparency. The installation project is supported by the Hudson Valley Community College Foundation’s Stephen L. Hyatt Fine Arts Fund and installed with assistance from the college’s Graphics Department and Physical Plant, and NoName Graphics, Troy.
