SOHA Gallery: Saturday, 14 April 2012

Join us for an art opening & reception for "Refuge", mixed media works by Patricia Vinyard on April 14th, 6-10pm. Exhibiting through May 3, 2012 - Hours:11:00am-4:00pm Tuesday-Saturday.

In Patricia Vinyard's show, Refuge, she explores concepts surrounding the protections we find in the familiar, noticing that when the familiar is nowhere to be found, we often settle for the unfamiliar shaped into familiar forms. She looks into our surprise when we have exposed ourselves, and then at our reflexive desire to take cover.Inspired by the architecture of birds' nests in particular, and by the idea of any safe harbor in general, she has fashioned imagery where the mind can curl up and get comfortable - but only temporarily. In her sculptural works, she delves into our daily habits and the mundane and sometimes discarded objects we employ, consume, or destroy to return ourselves to a peaceful state.
