One of my favourite artists, Amy Rice has two shows happening this month and what's cool is one is in the US (Philadelphia, PA) and one here in Canada (Victoria, BC). The first one I'm mentioning is Rooted, at the Art Star Gallery in Philadelphia, PA. (October 7th through November 20th)
In this body of work, I have used artifacts; found items and uncommon mediums: prints on antique handwritten letters of love and loss, feed sack bags from my family farm, antique atlas pages, and the string from last year’s morning glories among other things. Rooted celebrates 100% completion, hard work paying off, fall festivals, and earnest endeavors.-Amy Rice 2011
