Erie Quartos

 

 

 

Erie Quartos Installation   Lake Erie Plastic, sewn Balloon thread, ink, woodcut, cutouts, shoe soles, with pulp painting and blowouts on handmade local Milkweed and Mitzumata paper, 73"x245", 2020.

(majority of materials are sourced from Lake Erie)

 

Above is official description of this art installation. 

Who hasn't been listening to virtual lectures, pod casts, random videos?

 The Morgan Conservancy is an organization founded from the world of hand made paper.

I signed up for a virtual art talk & walk through of the exhibit above by Timothy Frerichs, a Professor of Art in the Department of Visual Arts at SUNY Fredonia.

 

Living on the shores of Lake Erie he uses flotsam & jetsam in much of his work.

His talk was interesting, his process labor intensive. Yet another artist I admire.

The list is huge.

 How do you find the people you admire?  What have you been paying attention to?

Come to the Elk Rapids Art Event

 I'm happy to be a part of "Experience Art Rapids".

"Bursting at the Seams"

In the show are three pieces of mine seen above & below.

"Urban Sprawl" 

There is an artists meet & greet on June 21st, Wednesday, from 6 -9 PM. 

Anyone in the area I suggest you come check it out. Patterned after Art Prize in Grand Rapids, MI 

which has become a HUGE thing. This is small in comparison, but it may grow over time. 

I hope you get a chance to visit.
