Beauty Emotion Spirit Soul opens April 5

Judy Martin's solo exhibition at One Sky Gallery in Sudbury Ontario opens April 5
Reception/meet the artist:   7 - 9 pm

The exhibition consists of textiles and framed stitched pieces.  The textiles have been hung from the ceiling which gives them a sculptural quality.  They are at eye level with space all around and one can move all around the work.   Some of them move in the slightest breeze, which adds a spiritual quality to the space.

Judy Martin works in a minimalist style, if it is possible to do so with the lush textures that cloth and stitch give.  Her favourite shapes are the cross/plus sign, the circle within a square, and dots, most often in grids.   The artist's use of such simple marks, and her quiet palette, give the exhibition on a whole a feeling of positive serenity.
18 pieces are in the exhibition.
