 om\nActon Memorial Library\n486 Main Street\, Acton\, MA\, 01720\nJoin us 
 for a discussion on Kimberly Stoney's work which will be displayed in the 
 Acton Memorial Library meeting room for November and December.\nArtist Bio
 \nKimberly Stoney is a Massachusetts-based mixed-media artist whose colorf
 ul\, layered compositions explore the relationships between color\, textur
 e\, pattern\, and form. With a background in sculpture and ceramics\, she 
 brings a playful and experimental approach to painting and collage\, creat
 ing abstract works that invite curiosity and personal interpretation.\nShe
  holds a BFA in Ceramics from Alfred University and an MFA in Sculpture fr
 om the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her work has been exhi
 bited in Massachusetts\, Connecticut\, and North Carolina.\nExhibition Des
 cription\nThis Must Be the Place is a collection of mixed-media collages i
 nspired by the Talking Heads song of the same name.\nThe project began dur
 ing an artist residency in Northern Michigan\, a place that holds special 
 meaning for Stoney. Having lived there in 1983\, when the song was release
 d\, she has long associated its lyrics with feelings of joy\, belonging\, 
 and the comforting sense of being home.\nEach collage takes its title from
  a line in the song. Rather than illustrating the lyrics\, Stoney uses the
 m as starting points for exploring color\, shape\, texture\, and personal 
 associations.\nTogether\, the works reflect an evolving understanding of h
 ome\, not simply as a physical place\, but as a feeling of safety\, love\,
  and belonging that we carry with us.\nReasonable accommodations for peopl
 e with disabilities are available upon request by emailing library@actonma
 .gov.\nRegister online between 11/3/2026 9:00 AM and 12/3/2026 11:45 PM.
