Please join us for the opening reception Thursday, October 8, 2026, from 7–9 pm, where all artists will be in attendance.
Earls Court Gallery is pleased to present Intervals Between Colour, an exhibition featuring the work of Dara Aram, Katharine Kennie, and Nancy Benoy. Inspired by Josef Albers’ colour theory “Color Intervals and Transformation,” the exhibition explores colour as something experienced through relationship—with other colours, forms, materials, and spaces.
For Albers, colour is never entirely fixed. Its appearance and effect can change according to the colours that surround it which create relationships of contrast, harmony, tension, and transformation. Each artist presented in Intervals Between Colour share distinct approaches to demonstrate how colour can shift perception and create meaning through its relationships with other compositional components.
Dara Aram’s atmospheric paintings consider the intersections of colour, nature, memory, displacement, and the human experience. Katharine Kennie builds layered paintings inspired by the patterns, structures, and rhythms of the natural world, allowing colour and texture to accumulate over time. Nancy Benoy explores colour through play and experimentation, combining saturated pigment, line, and form across painting, assemblage, and sculpture.
Together, the artists invite viewers to consider colour as active rather than static—a force that changes according to what surrounds it and what it encounters. Intervals Between Colour asks us to look beyond individual colours and to pay attention to the spaces between them: the moments of contrast, transformation, harmony, and tension where perception itself begins to shift.
Intervals of Colour will be on view in the main gallery at 215 Ottawa Street North, Hamilton, from October 8 through November 14, 2026. Earls Court Gallery is open Tuesday to Friday from 10 am to 5 pm, and Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm. All artworks will also be available to view online upon installation.
