More Leaves of the Tree
Nature’s Offering, my latest paper mobile was accepted into the juried exhibition—“More Leaves of the Tree”—that was held September 23 through November 7, 2020 at the Radford University Art Museum on Tyler in Radford, Virginia.
This exhibition featured works of art made of leaves, depicting leaves, referring to leaves, or metaphorically about leaves. Some three hundred works were submitted for consideration—which was the largest response the museum has ever had to a juried exhibition. The submitted works include a broad array of styles and media, ranging from abstract evocations to representational depictions: oil, acrylic and watercolor paintings, metal and stone sculpture, ceramics, collages, animated film, photography, jewelry, fiber constructions, mixed media mobiles, etc.
The exhibition’s juror is Patrick Dougherty, a North Carolina-based sculptor renowned world-wide for his monumental environmental works constructed out of tree saplings. (His past awards include: the 2011 Factor Prize for Southern Art; a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant; a Henry Moore Foundation Fellowship; a Japan-US Creative Arts Fellowship, and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship.
