SUMMARY:Carmen Grier + Terry Gess: Together
DESCRIPTION:Carmen’s Work:\nMy work for this exhibit has been made this past winter — the perfect time to go inward. \nWhen the leaves are down\, the stark bare branches create the most engaging shapes as they curve and bend over and under each other. I find these line drawings in nature to be an unending source of inspiration. The colors of the landscape are fairly neutral but the sudden peek of a green water tank\, an orange surveyor stick\, or a red vine is enough to get me started on a color palette. Once I start working\, the painting takes on a life of its own and I react to what’s before me\, making moment-to-moment decisions. Some paintings find their way to completion faster than others but often I rework a painting multiple times before it is resolved. A new series of smaller works that will be shown is entitled: “Listening with My Eyes”. \nTerry’s Work:\nI’ve long made work that fits in the hand and in the kitchen. But with the solitude provided by the Covid pandemic\, I’ve been exploring pottery making on a larger scale. This exhibit at Toe River Arts has given me the challenge of making work to adorn a large room\, to let the pots interplay and influence the space surrounding them. \nEverything changes when working large. Beyond the physical challenges of working with larger\, much heavier shapes\, my personal artistic goal has been to make new work that embodies a personality and character that is something of a departure from the forms I have made before. One of the treasures in this process is in seeing how glaze and surface can come into their own given ample space to move and interact with each other. \nWhen: June 17 – July 22\, 2023\nWhere: Kokol Gallery

SUMMARY:Entangled: Intersections of Thought & Reality by Stephanie Thomas Berry & Alena Applerose
DESCRIPTION:Giving oneself the opportunity to work outside of usual constraints unlocks access to a deeper expression of the psyche. In conversation one day Alena and Stephanie\, longtime kindred creative spirits\, discovered they had embarked on a similar adventure in their studio practices that was exploring this very idea. Our exhibit consists of drawings and sculptures that we create in conversation with each other and that intersect with our inner life. In addition\, we offer our audience an opportunity to join us on the journey of surrendering expectations through an interactive undertaking of their own. Participants are invited to hang their own creations\, crafted within the space\, with the exhibit. \nWhen: July 29 – September 9\, 2023\nWhere: Owen Gallery

SUMMARY:Resilience: The Heart of Ukraine – Photography by Michael Andrews
DESCRIPTION:The photo exhibition\, “Resilience: The Heart of Ukraine” features work by American photographer Michael Andrews. As a volunteer with United States Peace Corps Ukraine in 2018–19\, Andrews augmented his service as a consultant to an HIV and AIDS service agency working as a photographer for Ukraine’s Baba Yelka Cultural Expedition. The group was formed in 2018 to preserve and share the unique cultural traditions of Ukraine’s Kirovoghad region — stories\, songs\, recipes\, and material culture\, including traditional embroidery. \n“Resilience” offers a unique window into remote village life before Russia’s invasion\, and focuses on the lives of Ukrainian “babusyas” (grandmothers) and their cultural roots. \nThe exhibition was a year in the making and required long-distance collaboration between Andrews and his Ukrainian colleagues. “Resilience” debuted in Charlotte\, NC in 2022\, and presently is on tour to a number of American venues. The exhibition invites discussion of a range of timely topics\, including the iconic role of grandmothers in Ukrainian culture\, the country’s history\, unique traditions\, and today’s war. \n“Resilience: The Heart of Ukraine” is a tribute to the babusyas and families who preserve Ukraine’s unique and beautiful culture and to the Baba Yelka Expedition’s race against time and unthinkable war to preserve Ukraine’s unique traditions for future generations to embrace. \nWhen: August 4 – September 9\nWhere: Kokol Gallery
