Opening Reception - John MacConnell: Sum of Its Parts

Please join us at Childs Gallery for an opening reception with the artist celebrating the new exhibition 'John MacConnell: Sum of Its Parts.'

MacConnell returns to Childs Gallery for his second solo exhibition with a new series of paintings and drawings that continues his ongoing 'Fragments' project.

'My work has long explored how identity is constructed from fragments: whether through the broken sculptures of antiquity, the curated images of the digital age, or the silent histories embedded in architecture. In Sum of Its Parts, I return to the human body, examining how meaning emerges from pieces assembled, separated, and reimagined.'

'Sum of Its Parts will be on view at the gallery through January 11, 2026.
