Hidden Harmony Opening Reception
Heron Arts is pleased to announce Hidden Harmony, a duo exhibition featuring Lady Henze and Joshua Rampage. The opening reception for Hidden Harmony is Thursday, March 12th, 2026 from 6-9pm. It is free and open to the public. The exhibition will be on view to the public until April 16th, by appointment only.
Hidden Harmony features mixed media paintings that investigate perceived reality through abstraction, the battle between control and release, and obscuring personal revelations. Lady Henze’s approach is rooted in reality vs personal perspective; her new body of work is an interpretation of urbanscapes that relinquish control back to the environment. This concept is then mimicked in her paint smear technique where the lack of restraint obfuscates the original image. Henze states about her transition into his style of painting, “The hard-edge work is a low-resolution view of the same walking city and the new work is a hyper focus on the high-frequency details of that same city. Where the two meet to the observer, is in my sense of color and placement.”
Joshua Rampage is a collector of real secrets and in his paintings, he obscures these private affairs under layers of paint. As a color-blind artist, Rampage’s process is geared towards organic compositions juxtaposed with geometric foundations. Even with his unique perspective, his color usage forms balanced work that folds in his affinity to art history, especially Allover paintings popularized in the mid 20th century. Rampage submits to the power of chance, allowing each layer to build out the composition in between the text and arriving at the final stage through improvisation.
