I could not be more excited about a show than this one! I did a proposal to Maude Kerns Art Center two years ago and was awarded a show using the entire gallery. I recruited 8 other artists from around Oregon who make art using recycled materials to join me in this exhibition. I am blown away by the work that each artist has created. I can’t wait for you to see it all!
Our show statement is all about sustainability and how we hope to raise awareness about creating less waste in the world by using our discards. To that end, I created a display for our show that includes The Guide to Used Goods which features more than 100 places in Eugene/Springfield to buy secondhand goods and materials. Some of the outlets even provided discount coupons for the display.
I sincerely hope that you will see this show if you live in our area!
