So yeah guess who's gonna be in a fancy exhibit? So much for my fear of galleries. Though it helps that I was invited and didn't have to approach them all, "You don't know me but you should totes work to get me money!"
So five of my necklaces will be featured, as far as I know, the only jewelry in the thing which is such an honor omg. Here's some more info:
Artist Reception
The Pulse Project will take place at The Empty Spaces Project / Gallery On Main Street in Putnam, Connecticut during the entire month of April 2015. Run by Paul Toussaint and Ann Monteiro, this was the space that recently hosted the 5 x 5 Small Works exhibition, also based on The Pulse.
29 artists that were featured in the books (The Pulse of Mixed Media and The Mixed Media Artist) are exhibiting their work at the show. The exhibited pieces reflect the full range of mixed media and include assemblage, encaustic, collage, acrylic, oil, pastel, photography, digital, fabric, jewelry and more. A number of the works were featured in the books although the majority are new.
For those of you in the area, the opening reception is being held on Friday, April 3 from 6-9pm at the gallery located on 114 Main Street in Putnam, Connecticut. There will be a number of artists from the show attending. The show officially closes on April 30.
All 100+ works will also be exhibited on and available for purchase through my blog during the run of the show. For a taste of what is to come, here are the participating artists and one example each of the work they have submitted.

Congratulations! and I'm glad they will have the show on line, too. That's always a frustration when distance prohibits attendance to an event like this when I'd really love to see everything in the show.
ReplyDeleteNow the hard part, which pieces do you send?!? ;)
Yay - congratulations! !
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Fanci-girl! I always knew you would be famous one day... :0)

Congratulations that is so cool. You will have to share what your showing...
ReplyDeleteBravo Fanci! (And congratulations Marina!)
ReplyDeleteThere is a wonderful video available at the gallery link, so everyone should check that out. The work shown is so impressive, and your jewelry will be showcased beautifully there.
ReplyDeleteIt's an honor to be invited, and I hope it opens up some new avenues for your work.
Thanks, too, for posting the two books. I'm definitely going to take advantage of ordering them both from the "Used" offerings. They're so inexpensive that, even with postage, they'll be less costly than a new magazine!
Congrats! As Juliette said..pictures please....
ReplyDeleteGreat news! Your work is so unique, I'm glad they dragged you into a gallery so others can Ooooh & Awwwe about your jewelry besides your loyal blog followers. Congratulations!
