On View: ‘Point of Impact’ by Christy Mitchell

‘Point of Impact’
Solo Show by Christy Mitchell

Opening Reception: Friday, November 3 from 5-9pm
Duration: November 3-25, 2023
Open Fridays & Saturdays 12-5pm

Whether sent from the universe or embedded in our DNA, messages and events can suddenly arrive and change the course of our lives. 

Artist Christy Mitchell creates a solo show each November to decipher and express those moments from the previous year. In ‘Point of Impact’ she tackles the hard reality of caring for family members struggling with their mental health.

Appearing in waves, hitting hard like an asteroid making contact with Earth, watching a loved one go through crisis can feel like the end of the world. An impact event is where there is a collision between astronomical objects, some causing catastrophic consequences.  In this exhibition, Christy attempts to illustrate what navigating life in the middle of a meteor shower may look like, with assemblages and objects being thrown together creating a beautiful, chaotic, and often scary landscape.

July 2023 Exhibition ‘The Art of the Book’

First Friday Art Walk, Friday July 7th from 5-8pm

Artwork by Nikki Laxar

THE ART OF THE BOOK

An exhibition of handmade artists’ books by the members and friends of the Book Arts Guild of Vermont

Is the physical book coming to an end?  Not according to artists who seek to interpret ‘the book’ as a means of creative expression.  The concept of the artist’s book can take many forms and encompass various techniques, including collage, printmaking, papermaking, sewing, graphic design, calligraphy, and digital techniques.  The end result is an artwork that tells a story, relates a feeling, or sends a message through the interaction of the materials, structure, and content. Regardless of form, the artist’s book contains the vision of the artist, but is meant to be shared with the reader.    

The Book Arts Guild of Vermont (B.A.G.) was established in 2005 to offer learning opportunities in and around the field of book arts, and to create a supportive and welcoming environment for new and established artists and craftspeople.  Our mission is to promote greater public awareness of book arts, increase opportunities for members to exhibit their work, and inspire and encourage creativity and the sharing of book arts in our community.  Monthly meetings feature hands-on projects, demonstrations, lectures, and discussions.

Exhibition Duration at The S.P.A.C.E. Gallery: 

 July 7 – August 4, 2023

Open Hours: The Space Gallery, Fridays and Saturdays from 12-5pm. 

Opening/closing Receptions: First Friday Art Walks July 7 from 5-8pm and Aug 4th 5-8pm

‘All the Feels’ Opening Reception(s): 

First Friday, February 3 from 5-9pm

First Friday, March 3 from 5-8pm

Gallery Hours: Fridays & Saturdays from 12-5pm

‘All the Feels’ asked artists to submit work that exudes emotion, and they delivered! “How do you feel during the creation process? Does the content of your work bring joy, angst, humor? What emotions does the viewer go through when experiencing the art?” Creative minds can make art that is both gorgeous and off putting and we invite you to feel ‘all the feels’ with this gritty exhibition of local artists’ work.

Experience artwork by over 80 local artists, with sculpture, assemblage, collage, paintings, prints, and more!

Cold weather is dangerous! For the opening on Friday, February 3 please stay home if you need to travel very far or do not have reliable transportation. Bundle up with face and hand coverings and we will turn up the heat!
