“Duet” Exhibition
Art 101
This event has ended.
Light, layers, and transparency — the handling of these is what unites the artists.
Using the techniques of Joomchi — the traditional Korean process involving hanji, Korean mulberry paper — Theresa Ellerbrock creates the balanced structure that draws in the viewer. “It is through intuitive exploration and discovery of the material’s properties and their limits that the work is created. I use line, layering, transparency and opacity to bring structure, light and depth to the work.”
Susan Mayr’s richly layered canvases bespeak her own sense of peace, benevolence and beauty — the memories of special places. “Oil paint…and the possibility of applying layer after layer, is my medium. Each layer, even if it is scraped away or covered, retains its own memory. Those memories are bent in form and color until the paint speaks its language and I can listen.”
It is a great pleasure to exhibit these two fine artists together. Both have shown extensively — particularly in the New York area and Brooklyn — in venues far too numerous to list. Further information may be found on their websites.
