ECCO Art Gallery Studios presents "What Remains" by Annette Vlieg and Mary-Anne Johnston

Date:Until Sunday, August 9, 2026
Location:    ECCO Art Gallery Studios (46A Queen St., Lakefield)
Cost:Free admission

"What Remains" brings together painting and sculpture in an exploration of nature, memory, connection, and the quiet truths that endure. Lakefield artists Annette Vlieg and Mary-Anne Johnston are self-taught and bring a deep sensitivity to their work, creating pieces that invite viewers to pause, reflect, and consider what continues to hold meaning in a rapidly changing world. Johnston's paintings speak to the fragility of the natural world and the emotional weight of ecological loss, consumerism, and disconnection. Vlieg's sculptural figures offer a quieter but equally powerful response. Wordless and expressive, her work conveys empathy, compassion, and a deep sense of connection to oneself, to others, and to the natural world. Opening reception with the artists from 1 - 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 11. ECCO is open 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wednesday to Saturday and 12 - 4 p.m. on Sunday.
