Madeline Stenson                     Deluge
Artist Reception
Saturday August 11. 4 -6:30 pm
​ at the Souterrain Gallery
In this body of work, Madeline Stenson works primarily with pen/gel pen, pencil, colored pencil and marker on paper. Madeline is attempting to visually organize her feelings of anxiety, fear, stress, and depression through making these line drawings. At the same time, producing these works is highly meditative for her. The organized chaos of line-work function as a documentation of the artist’s thought process. Madeline wants to continue exploring how detailed lines and maze-like patterns can abstractly symbolize feelings of anxiety and still seem controlled when taken in as a whole image.
 
Madeline is an artist from Torrington, CT where she has a studio through the Five Points Launchpad. She graduated from the University of Hartford in 2017 with her BFA and a major in Sculpture and currently works as the Program Coordinator for the Northwest CT Arts Council.
