Reimagining the Intersection of Art & Environment- Exploring Natural & Repurposed Materials
April 5th- May 26th
Opening Reception: Friday, April 5th | 5PM-7PM (Free)

A solo exhibit with artist Jyoti Duwadi, curated by Barbara Matilsky, exploring natural and repurposed materials. Jyoti’s wide-ranging approach to making art calls attention to nature’s beauty and the precarious relationship between humans and the environment. This exhibition spotlights his repurposed sanding belts marked by the trees of Pacific Northwest Forests. Jyoti transforms this industrial material with earth colors and “visual poetry,” calligraphic writing defined by Ayurvedic medicine. The exhibition also features a variety of other media, including beeswax sculptures — made with utilitarian objects —in response to the ecological crisis of disappearing honey bee colonies.
