Come welcome female artists Sasha Baskin, Melanie Millar,
and Fari Rahimi to JM Gallery! Join us at the gallery this Saturday, August 1,
from 5-8pm for a chance to be some of the first to see this new exhibition.
See how these three remarkable artists transform the
ordinary into the extraordinary. Sasha Baskin is a weaver who uses texture and
shadow to construct elaborate portraits.
As she describes it, she looks at the faces slowly, takes them apart,
and puts them back together, revealing the beauties and stories she found in
them. Melanie Millar uses her paintings to explore the nature or ornamentation
and the human impulse to embellish. Her work is inspired by patterns, florals,
and other fabric designs. Fari Rahimi creates her sculptures by drawing heavily
on her upbringing in Iran. She uses her work to create “symbolic portraits of
the interior female self”.
We are excited to welcome these artists to JM Gallery! Join
us this Saturday to experience their beautiful work.
