Drawings of modern buildings in New Canaan, including the Gores Pavilion, the Glass House and Grace Farms, produced by high school senior Camaren Dayton, will be on exhibit at Gores Pavilion in Irwin Park starting June 1, the New Canaan Historical Society announced.
A reception will be held that evening from 5 to 7 p.m., and the public is invited.
Dayton will show 12 computer-generated drawings of modern buildings. Each 20 x 30 inch image is imaginatively enhanced with colorful, geometrical patterns inspired by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. The work was created for her Advanced Placement Studio Art 2-D Design course under the guidance of Jeanne McDonagh.
The NCHS senior, who has grown up in a modern house, is headed to Duke University to study engineering. “When people look at my work,” Camaren says, “I hope they are intrigued by the balance of lines and colors and appreciative of the simplicity of modern homes.”
The Gores Pavilion is located in Irwin Park at 848 Weed Street. It is generally open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. through October 29. For more information, please call The New Canaan Historical Society at 203-966-1776, or visit www.nchistory.org.
