“Unrequited Love 2,’’ by Jeroen Nelemans, in the group show “Love Letters,” at Helen Day Art Center, Stowe, Vt. — COVID-19 permitting.

The gallery says that the show “examines love by focusing on individual relationships and love past, love lost and love lived. The artists explore the theme of love as it exists beyond preconceived notions and societal structures, viewing it as an action, an emotion and a driving force. In the artwork of ‘Love Letters,’ love is memory, honor, hope and so much more. The concept of love is one of the rare truly universal aspects of humanity, and ‘Love Letters’ taps into that universality, framing it in the context of the much newer concept of the digital era.’’
