Vessels and Boxes
On exhibit will be creative art pieces that are or imply the idea of boxes or vessels. A vessel is a craft, a concave bowl or container, an artery or duct, a person or thing regarded as a holder or receiver. One painter considers the landscape a vessel, and she notices concave forms in landscapes and imaginatively exaggerates them in her paintings.
On the other hand, a box is a receptacle, a container, an embrace, a trunk, a package, a prison, a shelter, a frame. A box can make a person can feel boxed in, or packaged, or protected. It can keep something out, or keep something in. It can be used for carrying or storing. Boxes and vessels are also simply intriguing shapes.
The exhibit will feature works by Truckee artist Audrey Dygert, along with Sharri Lou Casey, Sandy Hetzel, Barbara Pulver, Sandy Sergott, and Pam Sutton.
