Exhibition Dates: March 5-April 26, 2015
Artists' reception: Thursday, March 5,6pm-8pm
Artists' talk: Wednesday, March 25, 6pm-7pm
Carol Snyder wheel throws and hand carves her work using high fired unglazed porcelain allowing light itself to coney patterns and textures in each piece. She is influenced by nature and landscapes, horizon lines and tree tops - all of which create a rhythm in her work.
Kellie McDermott has also been fascinated with landscapes, particularly those abandoned urban scenes that have changed to become perennial records of decline. Her paintings capture the juxtaposition of light and contrast, and when layered with wax, take on an interesting luminous quality. Together these two artists capture the delicate balance between light and dark, made by hand vs nature, standing strength built by fragility.
