    Black Bird/Yellow Line

    Through the visual elements of a black bird and a yellow line, the artists create a collaborative presentation in which the viewer can piece together a vignette or a series of narratives limited only by their imagination.

    Through the visual elements of a black bird and a yellow line, the artists create a collaborative presentation in which the viewer can piece together a vignette or a series of narratives limited only by their imagination. The idea for Black Bird/Yellow Line originated during the process of installing monthly shows at the Gallery. During this process, there is almost always some sort of “ah-ha!” moment when two pieces seem somehow destined to go together--because of theme, color or composition.

    In this show the artists push this unifying dialogue further, extending the concept through the gallery space. Each visitor will undoubtably conjure different meanings from the artwork. Viewers are invited to record their impressions on a scroll running along the gallery wall, tying the creative process of the artists to the impressions of the viewer. In this way, the artist and observer collaborate in the creative process.

    The contributing artists: Arup Biswas explores through digital photo-composites the pertinent environmental and social issues of the day; Belinda Chlouber draws inspiration from human interaction with the natural world and uses it to create mixed media textile collages; much of Rosemary DiNardo’s work uses myth and fairy tale to create enchanting paintings; Nina Koepcke draws on Raven myth and legend in creating her ceramic scupture and monotype prints; Erna Metzger’s mixed media collages use paper, silk threads and a variety of materials to create rich multilayered pieces; Elizabeth Noerdlinger’s oil paintings are of contemplative places rich in color and mood; and Susan Wolf’s ceramic sculptures are poetry that has found form.
