For the exhibition "Icelandic Threads," Greenwood has furnished the space with hand-dyed fabrics and an edition of hand-stitched books entitled 'Vestiges' that include folded, sewn, dyed, and printed crinoline pieces accompanied by text. Much of the work was recently made while Greenwood was in residence at the Icelandic Textile Center in Iceland.
Combining her interest in art and science, Greenwood explores the shared geological land-forms of Iceland and Oregon. Her artwork focuses on history and connection: transforming personal and historical information, materials and textile items into sculptural images, objects and books examining the confluence of nature, materials, as well as the animism of place. Fridays and Saturdays, Noon to 5:00pm. Open until 8:00pm on Second Saturday Art Walk, March 9. |
