Causality. When disparate elements are combined or random materials are stacked, when unlikely shapes are forged or incongruent designs are assembled, whether situationally mounted or unconventionally installed, this mishmashing, this mixed-amalgamation incites a new visual equilibrium. Our contemporary world is made up of this dynamism—an unceasing revel of cause and effect. Artists who define this make up this exhibition.

Artists: Paula Barr, Sarah Bednarek, Ali Della Bitta, Daniel John Gadd, Brece Honeycutt, Ellen Letcher, Trevor King, Elizabeth Murray, Judy Pfaff, Wade Schaming, Christopher Vazquez, Greg Wall

Feedback Friday (Alumane) Brece Honeycutt + Anita Cazzola – Botanical Colors. The two will engage in a conversation about waste: wasted color, waste as invasive, waste as wasted time to not stop and smell the flowers, color under our feet people see as waste (the dandelion?!), color in sad places people see as waste…

Watch the recording of our Friday March 10th conversation HERE.

“Research is a material and the method of combining ‘book learning’ with ‘field notes,’ well-thumbed pages with current date, brings forth a way of viewing the world and underlies my working process.”—excerpt from Honeycutt essay in The Worcester Review, Volume XLlII, Numbers 1 & 2, pages 132-133

“On being a secret poet, heaven on earth and the fine art of showing up.”

“There’s a bit of poetry and mystery to Brece Honeycutt’s work, an unraveling that needs to happen to grasp the deeper meanings of her intensely researched nature and history-based drawings, natural dye work, installations, guided walks, and video essays. As we move into the quieter months of winter, this contemplation of what it means to show up and experience heaven on earth feels just right.”

Thanks so much Mary Jo Matsumoto of Fox and Bunny.  It was a pleasure to talk with you.

Please join us on Saturday October 1 at 11am for an autumnal walk exploring fall fields and flowers, fallen leaves and florets of goldenrods, along with found time to forage for thoughts and observations.

In the spirit of poet Mary Oliver, participants will take a notecard, tuck a pencil in their pockets and walk amongst the flora, birds, and trees on an artist guided walk around the grounds of Art Omi. We will explore what makes October, October. Our walk will be articulated with poems and readings chosen by Honeycutt to accentuate the natural occurrences happening on the ground and in the air.

Please register for the Walk, at Art Omi.

We invite you to Travelling Distances a screening of A Bird to overhear
