Opening Reception

Friday, February 27

5 - 7 P.M.

In the exhibition "Hidden Life," the artist collectiive 4 Common Corners

explores elements from the natural world that are often concealed from view. The subjects are seemingly unlimited, from bacteria to the heavens. Doppler radar, an ultrasound of an expecting mother, the life cycle of plants in the harsh climate of the western desert, threads of fungi interconnected just under the Earth’s surface, an abandoned adobe, creatures hiding beneath the depths of the sea, the secretive nesting habits of mother birds, algae, cyanobacteria … these  artists each explore nature’s secrets through their own lens, coalescing in a remarkable collection, bursting with life and color.   

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

4 Common Corners (4CC) is composed of twelve fiber artists residing in the Four Corners states: Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah. Vicki Conley, Shannon Conley, Diana Fox, Betty Hahn, Michelle Jackson, Nicole Dunn, Debra Goley, Bev Haring, Frances Murphy, Anne Moats, Lynn Welsch, and Rosanna Lynne Welter are drawn together by a shared sense of place and culture, each bringing their own artistic voice to the group. With wide-ranging artistic styles (realistic, narrative, abstract), and a broad range of techniques (contemporary surface design, piecing and applique, digital imagery, dimensionality) the group creates fiber art with an exciting diversity of ideas and approaches.

“Shot through with light, from all the stars in the skies, we are made of stardust. and its sparkle shines in our eyes, Elements of our bodies fall, from the heavens in the rain, a river of the universe, is running through our veins, looking into the darkness, From where our souls came, Staring into the distance where we had another name.”

-Bev Haring
