In Formation, Edgewater Gallery, Middlebury, VT
September 12th - October 31 st, 2026
Edgewater Gallery exhibition overview:
In Formation brings together the work of two artists who transform their surroundings through color, texture, material, and process. Though their approaches are distinctly different, both Marcia Crumley and Jane Davies are interested in the moment when a source is translated into something less literal and more expressive.
Marcia Crumley draws inspiration from the New England landscape, distilling scenes of forests, fields, coastlines, birds, and botanicals into simplified forms and vibrant compositions. Working primarily in encaustic, she builds her paintings through layers of pigmented wax, fusing, carving, scraping, and adding texture to the surface. The physicality of the medium is central to the work: beneath the recognizable forms are layers of color, gesture, and material that invite close looking. She aims to capture the intensity of a season, the movement of weather, or the sudden beauty of pattern in landscape.
