Art Exhibit – “REPETITION STUDIES: Thread on Canvas” BY KATHARINE HEYL
March 31 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free
Last chance to view “REPETITION STUDIES: Thread on Canvas” BY KATHARINE HEYL at the Willow Street Gallery, 6925 Willow Street NW, Washington, DC.
REPETITION STUDIES is an expression of a love of color through the insanity of everyday life. Using the thread as a medium, Katharine deconstructs the base colors by applying color theory techniques. The process of hammering hundreds of brass nails, then weaving fragile thread back and forth, results in a contrast of the materials similar to the contrast of a single color thread against a different hue, shade, or complementary. The intricate placement allows the color to express simply the best versions of itself while having a dramatic and psychological effect on the viewer.
