Tidal Memory: A Solo Exhibition by Brooke Lambert
By Sfumato
Tidal Memory invites viewers to immerse themselves in the delicate interplay between memory, material, and the natural world through the lens of printmaker and painter Brooke Lambert. Working from her studio in Lowell, MA, Lambert crafts textured works that evoke the beauty and fragility of our environment—particularly the ocean’s vast, ever-changing landscape. At the heart of her practice lies a commitment to sustainability. Rather than creating in isolation from environmental concerns, Lambert embraces them: her prints incorporate found and recycled materials—string, netting, and textured refuse that once harmed marine life—now reclaimed as instruments of art. In doing so, she renders the overlooked into something luminous, tactile, and full of grace. Lambert’s compositions are rich with visual echoes—rippling patterns, shadows beneath waves, the glint of light through water. These are not just studies of nature, but translations of feeling: the warmth of sun behind closed eyelids, the drift of thought near the shoreline, the quiet strength of cycles that continue despite human impact. Each piece becomes a meditation on presence, perception, and the power of reimagining what we discard.As much as Tidal Memory is a personal tribute to places and moments Brooke holds dear, it is also a call to attention—a gentle but firm reminder of what’s at stake in our relationship to the Earth. In a time of increasing environmental urgency, Lambert's work offers a path forward: one of beauty, awareness, and the transformative potential of art.
