October 11 – December 5, 2024
Gather – objects, stories, community.
The assemblage pieces on display blend my joy of celebrating what it means to Gather, with the creation of new art and artifacts from reclaimed materials. Everything we need already exists in this world.
The Gatherer collects.
The Gatherer cultivates.
The Gatherer cares for: the nourishment of people, the histories, the elders, the children, the traditions, the stories, the spirits, the plants, the food, the art, the land, the air, and the water.
Let us Gather, collect, cultivate, and tell stories, using what we have gathered.
Special thanks to the gallery at Blue Ridge Community College and Jennifer Whitmore for hosting a local artist and making space for us to gather.
