Christine Stoughton
The focus for this 2022 exhibition is this artist’s imaginings of nature’s life experience, with its sense of vitality and power as contrasted with fragility and vulnerability. Those who are familiar with this artist’s work will recognize the reoccurring theme of the connection between the earthly and the spiritual through the metaphor of ladder and scaffold imagery and the halo. Formally, there is an exploration of the materiality of the materials used to execute the work. This includes the intentional wrinkling of paper and the different tearing of the paper’s edges to suggest the variety in the veining and boundaries of organic matter. The growth patterns of the natural materials used in the sculpture help determine their final shape, as well as the “drawn” lines of the shadows they cast on the wall. All the works have a constructed, layered quality to them, whether they are 3D or 2D, since the imagery is built, often through the inclusion of deconstructed earlier works. As with nature, it grew from what was left to rejuvenate new growth.
