'Looking Through: New Work from Elise Deringer (right) & Kelsey Viola Wiskirchen' (left) at the AnArte Gallery, San Antonio.
A close up of 'Olivia Wade and Lizzie' shows Kelsey's signature technique - free motion stitch over net.
This work is huge, 100" w x 53" h.
The gallery was barely wide enough to get back far enough to view the work.
The lighting added another dimension to Kelsey's works, creating repeated lines on the white walls.
Here is a low quality image of another large work where Kelsey drew with her machine a page from her journal.
'Residue #9 (Why I Wake Early)', 3 pieces, each 40" x 13"
Elise Dereinger's work is very different - opaque where Kelsey's is transparent.
Here Elise has run ink and sand inside silk, dyed pillow-case forms. Her spontaneity and lines-left-to-chance contrast with Kelsey's intense pre-planning.
I was sorry I couldn't get more images of Elise's work.
'Memory, poetry, and landscape come together in this two-person exhibition that examines internal self, the external world , and the space between.'
