Into the Woods is Anne Clarke’s latest art exhibit. It is currently on display at the Gandee Gallery, 7845 Main Street, Fabius, New York 13063.
This collection reflects her artistic journey – from student to professor and beyond (she will retire next month from her job at Syracuse University). The line quality in her drawings is exquisite. It was her first art love before she ventured into textile territory. Fiber Arts is Clarke’s current jam, incorporating crochet, tatting, felting and needlepoint into delicate creations in wool, silk and cotton. She is also a milliner, having made thousands of hats over the decades.
The energy that travels through her decorative and functional work infuses it with an incandescent spirituality and seems to unite us all in its path. She breathes love into each piece and it’s this positive feeling that allows the viewer to really inhale her depth of character.
This show acts as a retrospective, allowing Clarke to reminisce and re-evaluate her trailblazing path in order to prepare for its next turn.
Into the Woods will be on display through June 23, 2024. Click here for more information.
