Between Form and Feeling
Heather Couch, Renée Rey and Terre Rybovich
Montgomery Hall + Greenfield Gallery
Exhibiting together for a second time, three Florida-based artists—Heather Couch, Renée Rey, and Terre Rybovich—explore the instinctive pull of body, material, and myth. In Between Form and Feeling, they dive deeper into their shared interest in intuition, transformation, and the unseen forces that shape us.
Through tactile sculpture, ethereal painting, and embodied drawing, the artists ask: What emerges when you surrender to process, trust your materials, and follow what can’t be explained?

Past the Eyes
Kandy G. Lopez
Montgomery Hall + Greenfield Gallery
Past the Eyes” is an evocative exploration of perception, memory, and the unseen narratives that reside beyond immediate vision. This exhibition invites viewers to consider what lies beneath the surface of observation—challenging the boundaries between what is seen and what is truly understood.
Through a diverse array of mediums and perspectives, the featured artists interrogate the act of looking itself. Their works serve as portals, urging audiences to move beyond passive viewing and engage with the deeper currents of emotion, history, and imagination that inform our experiences. Each piece acts as both a mirror and a window, reflecting personal and collective truths while offering glimpses into hidden realms.
By traversing the space “past the eyes,” this exhibition seeks to foster a dialogue about presence, awareness, and the profound connections that emerge when we dare to look beyond appearances. In doing so, it invites all who enter to reconsider the power of sight and the stories that await discovery just beyond the threshold of vision.
Exhibition: November 3 – December 29, 2025
Reception: November 20, 2025 | Free
