Serpent Mound: Observations of the Seen, the Unseen
June 4- 27, 2026
Studio Kroner presents renowned local artist Ken Landon Buck and his exhibition Serpent Mound: Observations of the Seen, the Unseen, the Mystical, and the Reverent—a body of work shaped by years of return visits to one of Ohio’s most sacred landscapes.
Over a three-year period, Buck repeatedly returned to Serpent Mound during equinoxes, solstices, and seasonal gatherings, quietly observing Indigenous ceremonies marked by prayer, song, movement, and communal ritual. Initially documenting these moments for personal reflection, he came to recognize a deeper artistic and spiritual calling within the images he captured.
The exhibition features approximately 30 works in pastel, watercolor, and gouache. Through layered gesture, color, and atmosphere, the paintings convey Buck’s sustained presence at the site and his deep respect for its cultural and spiritual significance, offering viewers a space for reflection grounded in observation, memory, and reverence.
