Geoff Shilling and Tina Brown's "Natural Impressions" will be on display at the Artworks in December.
This body of work was inspired by autumn on Orcas Island. Mixed media panels showcase Geoff’s jacquard weavings of oversized foliage while Tina’s cacophony of decorative papers act as their setting. In an experimental twist, they use lacquer to stiffen the woven pieces, enabling them to treat the fabric more like paper, while the decorative papers act more like fiber.
This is Geoff and Tina’s third collaborative show. They enjoy the artistic play that happens when creating a joint work of art, integrating their contrasting mediums and work habits.
The Artworks is open daily from 10 to 5.
