Tell Me A Story Art Show - Grey Matter, Kincardine, ON
In this enchanting series, driftwood washed ashore by the waves of Lake Huron transforms into doorways to magical realms. Each piece, lovingly wrapped in vibrant wool left over from cherished knitting projects, tells a unique story. From wintery forests to underwater paradises, "That's a Wrap!" invites viewers to escape into fantastical worlds where nature and imagination intertwine.
THE WHISPERING BIRCH
In the hush of a snow-covered forest, silver-white birch trees stand tall, shrouded in a dreamy winter fog. Each thread of wool whispers secrets of the forest—of quiet animals darting through the trees and moonlight dancing on frozen streams. This piece invites you to step into the stillness and listen to the stories carried on the frosty air.
CORAL'S EMBRACE
Like a frozen moment of the ocean’s artistry, the coral twists and flourishes, its branches stretching like an underwater forest sculpted by time and tide. A tapestry of vibrant hues weave together, mimicking the living reefs that cradle marine life in their delicate arms. Each curve and branch tells a silent story of the sea – of waves that shape, of tides that nurture, and of a world both fragile and resilient.
THE OLD TREE
In a quiet clearing, an old tree stands alone, its bark etched with time, whispering secrets only the trees remember. Once part of a vast forest, it now stands as the last of a forgotten woodland, reminding us that nature is not infinite – it is delicate, fleeting, and in need of our care. The tree bends but does not break, a quiet lesson in resilience, urging us to tread gently, to listen closely, and to protect what remains before the whispers fade to silence.
