Stop by today and get a closer look at this memori Stop by today and get a closer look at this memorizing piece, “Violin” by Stephanie Harper, from our exhibition, "Mosaics 2022- As Seen Through New Eyes." “I struggled to figure out how to cut the cans. First, I used a paper punch, but that took a lot of time, and the noise drove my husband crazy. Then I tried a Cricut. This was also time consuming, and it had its own set of challenges. I now have a die press and can cut 400 pieces at a time.” Do you recognize any of the cans in this work of art before zooming in?
Have you been in to see “Mosaics 2022- As Seen T Have you been in to see “Mosaics 2022- As Seen Through New Eyes”? Stop by today and get a closer look at this piece, “Dream Catcher” by Holly Sutherland. "The biggest challenge in merging the concept of a “Dream Catcher” into the medium of mosaics, was transforming old world techniques into a modern-day format to achieve the look of wood. I toiled with how to address the negative space in the stained glass to represent the web. Grout was the answer.”

This exhibition set to push the boundaries of the medium and you can see that through the incredible work we have. Check out this piece by Kathy Thaden, “The Understory”. “Inspired by Richard Powers’ novel “The Overstory”, my desire was to create a fragment of an ecosystem in a mosaic, the glimpse the microscopic living organisms we cannot see by take for granted until they are gone. I invite the viewer to look closely, seeing all the tiny bits that create the whole, just as i hope we pay attention to protecting the natural world around us.” Stop by today and see this stunning piece in person, it’s truly a wonder!

Stop by and see the incredible work by @jenna.annu Stop by and see the incredible work by @jenna.annunziato. Her work is in our community gallery. The show features contour-cut oil paintings of discarded clothing as well as a large decaying couch next to a painted window. The paintings are scattered about the wall in an irregular configuration, hung flush to the wall. The fungi serve as an element that thrive amongst the decaying interior, breaking down the barrier between internal thought patterns and patterns that form in nature.⁠ ⁠ Photo reposted from @jenna.annunziato
