ASHELY HOPE CARLISLE, YUKARI LEE, JEFF WEIMAN, BETSY KNABE ROE

AUGUST 20 - SEPTEMBER 17, 2010

ASHLEY HOPE CARLISLE creates an imaginary world that is a crossover between human and plant. She utilizes references to flora as a metaphor for the connections humans have with the world around them.

YUKARI LEE sees her creation process as collaboration with clay that continues until the piece can “claim its own presence.” She is compelled to discover the truth of the form, something she finds to be intangible but present.

JEFF WEIMAN explores the intangible strength that is revealed in the essence of his work. He seeks to study the power that his works evoke, as much as the pieces themselves.

BETSY KNABE ROE creates sculptures that speak of remnants of a past existence that contain a hopeful aspect of preservation. The sculptures speak of a possibility of reviving the human interconnection with the natural world.
