JILL POWERS

JANUARY 9 - FEBUARY 3

EXHIBITION INFORMATION

ARTIST STATEMENT

I love working on the edge of innovation, mingling centuries old papermaking and basketry traditions. The

meditative experience of working for long hours with my hands in repeated motions gives way to the exhila-

ration of watching the form gain its incredible strength during the drying and stitching process.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Jill Powers is a contemporary artist who works primarily with unusual plant bers and natural processes. Her

intriguing ber panels and vessels are made of plant materials that have been harvested, cooked, cast into

specic shapes, hand painted, and stitched. Her favorite material is an inner bark ber called Kozo, which

is sustainably grown. Issues related to environmental changes are reected in her sculptural and installation

work. Jill shows her work internationally, and it has been written about in the NY Times. Her work won the

Best of Show in Millennium Show at the American Museum of Papermaking in Atlanta.

The experience of creating with bark ber connects me with the ancient people who rst discovered its

special qualities. Working outdoors as they did, I prepare the woody bast bers and plant materials us-

ing traditional methods of cooking and hand beating, and then experiment in the studio with contemporary

techniques and interpretations. The process of casting, painting with pigments, stitching, and combining with

natures elements draws me into an intimate experience with the natural world. - Jill Powers

SALLY STOCKHOLD

MARCH 6 - APRIL 8

ARTIST STATEMENT

Sally Stockholds current work is an ongoing photographic self-portrait series begun a few years ago. Stock-

hold is known for her outrageously funny, sometimes poignant, strikingly beautiful portraits in which she uses

herself as the canvas to depict iconic females and some iconic males from history and ction.

Whether Stockholds subjects were famous, notorious, or capricious, her wish is to share with the viewer her

experience of discovering and connecting with these iconic gures.

When she creates each portrait, her intention is never to impersonate but rather to embody each person and

to refer to their iconographic qualities. For Stockhold, these images are deeply personal and subjective. Her

belief is that these photographs are never taken; instead, she prefers to think that these powerful people

gave their images to her.With a background in painting, photography and lm, Stockholds work is multi-layered. After distilling her

knowledge and research of each iconic person into a conceptual image, she then paints life-size magi-

cal realism backdrops to enhance the perception of the individuals she intends to portray. With costumes,

make-up, wigs and props assembled, lights positioned, the camera readied, the story begins...

Celebrating Bike Month during the month of June, we will present bike-inspired work from around the coun-

The bicycle has long been an inspiration to artists and we celebrate the culture of bicycle enthusiasm, t-

ness and competition with a juried exhibition of Bicycle Art. Art in all mediums will be considered. Images

of bicycles, bicycle events and culture, art made from bicycle parts, etc. all will be considered and judged

based on creativity, originality and execution. This exhibition will also feature an assortment of vintage bikes

selected by Bicycle Longmont.

WILLIAM STOEHR

JULY 3 - AUGUST 4

ARTIST STATEMENT

Just as Renaissance artists gained knowledge from medical investigations and then the Impressionists, Expres-

sionists, Surrealists, Cubists and others mined medical and scientic sources, so now today I search for artistic

potential in neuroscience. Starting with a vague or elusive expression and an uncertain context, I hope to

provoke viewers into completing my portraits with their own experience and feelings. Ambiguity begets en-

gagement and alternative interpretations or realities. I nd that my paintings elicit questions concerning se-

duction, strength, resolve, condence, violence and guilt simply by letting the viewer create the narrative. We

are attracted to faces it is our nature. If I ll the canvas with a big face then there is little room for exter-

nal leading context. The size and closely cropped image creates an elevated sense of intimacy. Searching

for meaning, viewers may turn inward.

uating from Rhode Island School of Design, she moved her studio to Brooklyn, NY, where she spent a decade
