About the exhibition on view 9/22-11/13:
On March 11, 2020 Ying Li received notification that the Haverford
College campus would be closing temporarily in response to the COVID-19
pandemic in Pennsylvania. What was initially forecast as a brief break
soon became weeks and then months. Faced with time and a campus
blossoming from winter to spring and spring to fall, Ying Li did what
any artist would do and went to work, painting each day en plein air.
The result is Blossoms in a Sudden Strangeness, an exhibition that captures the abstract beauty of Li’s creative output from March – August 2020. https://exhibits.haverford.edu/blossoms/
