This series is an homage to Western North Carolina, and the continuing recovery from the devastation of Hurricane Helene.  As weather patterns intensify and cause widespread damage, the awareness of our shared fragility has become unavoidable.  Birds cross the bridge between wild and urban spaces, but even their freedom of flight cannot outpace the loss of habitat.

Home: Comfort, Control/Order

Chaos: Tension between the past and the present

Ordinary treasures: intact furniture.  The upright chair.

Nature’s feast

Endangered habitats for birds and humans alike

ABOUT HER WORK

Be Boggs is a painter, professional illustrator, and collaborative multimedia artist living in Raleigh, NC. In all of her practices, the trajectory of her work is storytelling, where she reveals vulnerabilities of her history, and visions for the future.

Be’s paintings use strong compositional approaches and emphasize color to evoke an uneasy nostalgia.  As a professional illustrator, Be collaborates with both writers and editors to create visual interpretations of their words to open a window onto the story for the reader.

In the past few years Be has been involved in collaborative and fundraising art exhibits from Los Angeles, CA to Raleigh, NC.  Additionally Be has had solo painting exhibits in San Francisco, Oakland, Laguna Beach and Los Angeles.
