For the month of August, Assemble Gallery will be presenting a very unique artist. Molly Bosley’s, The Nature of Things, depicts imaginary landscapes inhabited by figures from discordant imagery. Each scene is sourced from entirely different origins, yet the characters within are gathered as familiars. This collection of artwork explores a fascination with the unawareness, unfamiliarity, unsophistication, and unworldliness of innocence in contrast with the inevitable impurity ingrained in human nature. Combinations of different techniques and materials emphasize the contrasts which exist in these scenes. Much like reflections of our living world, these things come together and create a chaotic balance.

Hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, the majority of Molly Bosley’s time is spent feeding the hunger to create things with her hands, sewing and collecting materials for new projects. Bosley’s wanderings through the aisles of thrift stores & her diggings into yard-sale bins provide her with the raw materials from which she constructs depictions of memories that never happened. Her own memories span far more than the stretch of New England from her hometown in Massachusetts to her alma mater in Vermont, where she studied fine art and language. “I want to create an art that is arresting, yet familiar, like a memento you find tucked away in between the pages of an old book,” she says. Bosley’s need to create is sustained by her hunger to learn and to experience both familiar histories and new adventures—desires which have bounced her around Europe and the Americas so far; and will undoubtedly lead her further.
