A beautiful blend of nature-inspired abstract art creates a modern and calming atmosphere for patients and visitors at Blessing Health Center. The repetition of dark blue reflects the primary brand color for Blessing Health System. The organic imagery prompts a natural flow through the sprawling space and emphasizes the relaxing interior aesthetic. Each piece complements the next, making the art appear as one extensive collection.

Oversized canvases depict abstract flowers, lilypads, and other organic elements. Much of the artwork features irregular shapes and splashes of color, leaving the subject matter up to the viewers’ interpretation and encouraging them to find their own meaning. For example, a pair of canvas prints near a reception area might resemble the hazy reflection of streetlights on a rainy evening.

Original works of art by Michael Kessler blend geometric and biomorphic shapes using several layers of acrylic paint to create intricate details and effects. The results may remind viewers of tree branches, vascular systems, or microscope slides.

A grand wooden sculpture commissioned from artist Rosemary Pierce adds interest and a pop of vibrant color to the clean, white space. The dimensional wall sculpture features an ombre gradation effect, matching the color palette seen throughout the facility, and offers an eye-catching focal point in a waiting area.
