We are thrilled to welcome our newest artist, Connie Rigdon, to the gallery. Connie brings a unique blend of contemporary abstract art that beautifully explores the complex relationship between the natural world and the built environment. Her work captures the chaotic beauty of nature intertwined with humanity’s intrinsic need for order, creating a visual dialogue that is both intuitive and spontaneous.

Connie’s art is defined by two distinct lines: dynamic abstract expressionist pieces and abstracted landscapes. Her abstract expressionist works reflect a raw, emotional exploration of space and movement, while her abstracted landscapes capture the essence of her travels and memories of place. Each piece tells a story of the world around us, seen through the eyes of an artist who understands both the organic flow of nature and the structured precision of architectural design.

With a Master of Architecture and years of experience in the field, Connie’s transition from architecture to abstract art was a natural progression. Her architectural background informs her art, blending her passion for space, form, and the environment into each painting. The result is a body of work that resonates with depth, movement, and a profound understanding of the interplay between nature and manmade structures.

Connie has exhibited her work in numerous group shows across the Midwest and East Coast, earning accolades along the way. Now based in Charleston, South Carolina, she continues to refine her abstract visual language, drawing inspiration from the vibrant environment around her. We are excited to showcase her work and to have her join our community of artists.

Please join us in welcoming Connie Rigdon to the gallery! We can’t wait for you to experience the powerful and captivating art she brings to our space.
