"Jill Powers achieves the mysticism of the orient with handmade paper that she casts into starkly simple forms. The serene oblong shape of Ms. Powers's "Reverence" has the essence of an Oriental reliquary. A single dried okra pod hangs down in front like a ceremonial vessel." -Review from the Sunday New York Times - July 15, 1990

I've been working on an installation piece for the last six months, related to Climate Change. The piece has led me to so many resources and information that I find fascinating. Here is a sneak preview of one small element of the coming piece. (It's made from a seed pod I found in my friend Eve's garden, and has a skin of gut and salt, creating a textured surface that I love.) It is a section of one element, out of hundreds in the installation. Stay tuned for the unveiling of this piece in January!

Open Studios began yesterday with a beautiful autumn skies, and my studio was packed all day. Lots of inspiration and conversation, good sales, interest in upcoming workshops, and connections for the future. I am showing new floating panels, two new collections of wall pieces, the finished silkworm pieces, jewelry, and figures of women. Hope to see you here today, or next weekend. I'm open from noon to six pm, Saturday and Sunday. |
