Hours: Wednesday-Sunday, 11 am to 5 pm
The incomparably talented artist Ruby Silvious serves up another extraordinary exhibition of delightful confections that dazzle our eyes as well as engage our minds. Her "canvas" are often the thoughtlessly discarded: teabags, nutshells, eggshells, cashier tapes, and so much more. In this particular show we feast our eyes on kimonos and wall-hangings made of teabags. Notice, in the detail below, her fine stitching as well as painting. It's a tour de force of imagination applied to the almost unimaginable. Moreover, all these works of art sing out with beauty. The drawings, the colors and the forms remind us of how pleasurable looking at art can really be, especially in the lovely, tranquil environment provided by Hammond Museum and Japanese Stroll Gardens.
The weather is perfect this weekend and next. So don't hesitate and don't delay.
Ruby Silvious Waste Not closes next Sunday, June 9th at 5 pm.
NB: Ruby Silvious' workshop on Sunday, June 2nd has ready been sold out. I don't know if you can take a peek at the artist's and students' work, but I'll give it a try.
Meanwhile, below you will find a few photos of her installations . . . .
Bon Weekend,
Beth
