Flora and fauna are a recurring theme in the work of Nancy Cadogan, the British American figurative painter. In “The Lost Trees,” a solo exhibition, Cadogan ruminates on the emotional power of trees and their role in the natural world. Whether a tree is still standing or has fallen in a forest, Cadogan insists that its silent story is worthy of her time and our attention. The composition of each large-scale painting invites viewers to imagine exactly what that story might be. —Ashley Baker
