“You Had Me At Goldenrod” Solo Exhibition By Moni Hill

 Artist Moni Hill is celebrating the biodiversity of the Blue Ridge Mountains in her debut exhibit at Spoonbill Gallery, entitled “You Had Me at Goldenrod.” Hill, originally from Berlin, Germany has called Asheville, North Carolina home since 2004. Hill channels the rich biodiversity of the nearby mountains and forests into her striking and vivid paintings. Working primarily with acrylics on wood panels, she employs a layered technique that builds texture and depth. These layers not only enrich the visual experience but symbolize the passage of time and the richness of nature's tapestry. "In my work, I aim to capture the essence of biodiversity found in the Blue Ridge Mountains, using color and texture to reflect the interconnectedness of life and landscape," says Hill.

   Moni Hill was born in Berlin, Germany, and grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. Since 2004, she has lived in Asheville, North Carolina, where the biodiversity of the surrounding mountains and forests heavily influences her bold, vibrant paintings. Hill paints with acrylics on wood panels, allowing her to build layers and textures on the surface of her paintings. These layers create a history of marks and colors that allude to the passage of time. Hill has curated and participated in group and solo exhibitions throughout the Southeast and her work is collected nationally and internationally.
