Boca Raton Public Library Presents The Art Exhibit, “Relationships In Nature,” By Kim Heise

July 1–August 23, 2019, Downtown Library

Boca Raton, FL – The Boca Raton Public Library presents a new art exhibit, “Relationships in Nature,” by Kim Heise. Visitors to the Art in Public Places area of the Downtown Library will be able to view a variety of stunning watercolors depicting Florida’s native plants and animals.

Heise was born and raised in South Florida and has a bachelor’s degree in fine art from Florida Atlantic University. She frequently collaborates with other artists and organizations to promote local habitat conservation. Heise notes, “My goal is to contribute to the representation of native Florida species and their relationships to other plants and animals in the hope that they might be better protected.” Her watercolors have been exhibited in group shows in the South Florida area since 2014. Her exhibit at the Downtown Library will be her first solo show.

“Following the library’s recent presentation on female abstract expressionists, I came across Kim Heise’s work,” says Neil Schulhoff, Art Gallery Coordinator. “To me, it is exactly in the same headspace, albeit Ms. Heise’s work is completely representational, with images drawn from nature and in the medium of watercolor. There is almost a limitless depth of pigmentation and hue, which to my mind evinces both abstract and representational art.”
