On
May 1, 2010 Crimson Laurel Gallery in Bakersville, NC presents
"Contextures," the pottery of Ronan Kyle Peterson and Gillian Park and
also ceramics by Brooke Noble.
The vessels created by Ronan Kyle Peterson provide a ceramic comic book
view of the natural world and its processes of growth and decay. His
works feature interpretations of natural phenomena including insects
and other critters, leaves, bark, lichens and other elements of
nature. Gillian Parke combines elements of manufactured porcelain and
Japanese pottery to create unconventional works of art
Brook Noble's intention in her work is to be a catalyst, allowing
people to become engaged with objects and aware of the moment. She
frequently references the house as a metaphor and she is also motivated
by the sense of naïveté and the sensations of wonder and discovery that
come with her impression of what childhood was, is and should be. Her
work is a culmination of traditional craft methods, industrial
processes, modern design and unconventional fabrication.
The exhibition opens on May 1st and will remain through June 30th. Join
us for an artists reception on May 8 at 6pm. For more information
