Natasha Kohli and Rachelle Hill: En Route

@ Carlson Tower Gallery of North Park University

3225 W Foster Ave, Chicago, IL 60625

Opening Thursday, January 17th, from 5PM - 7PM

On view through Tuesday, February 12th

This year’s “En Route”* exhibition features the work of two Chicago vicinity artists Natasha Kohli and Rachelle Hill. The exhibition will include paintings by Natasha Kohli and a site specific installation by Rachelle Hill. The exhibition opens with a reception on Thursday January 17 from 5 – 7 pm and continues through February 12.

Abstract painter Natasha Kohli’s upbringing as an Indian-American exposed her to a variety of different spiritual and aesthetic influences. Her travels to Delhi, Florence or New York, not to mention her beloved home Chicago, have confirmed in her that all places are part of a whole. Ultimately she has found that art allows her to explore the universal and pervasive theme of “beauty” within the human existence.
