WILD PINK is a group show about the natural and cultural relationship of the ancient color PINK. There is certainly no dearth of pink in the natural world or in human culture. We accessorize, cosmeticize, gender-ize and interiorize to the point of being ‘tickled pink’. In the animal and floral world pink as hue and shade exists multifold. Whether to shock, protest or code the millennials, pink has survived the test of time. This show examines the fluid origins of PINK in ‘natural’ and/or ‘cultural’ contexts. This is open media, interdisciplinary, multimedia, installation, all contemporary crafts and design arts in two/three dimensions for the wall and floor.
Reception & Artist talks: Sept. 26th, 5-7pm

Album Release Concert
2024-11-02 19:00 - 20:30 (America/New_York) | Living Tree Alliance, 96 Living Tree Ln, Moretown, VT, 05660, United States
Join us for an intimate living-room performance by multi-instrumentalist Raphael Groten and violinist Rebecca Kodis as they share songs from their new CD, Unity—a musical prayer for healing. We’ll gather in the Common House of LTA’s co-housing village for this cozy event!
Unity began in 2020, when Raphael met Rebecca while playing a kirtan with a mutual friend. As their friendship and partnership grew, so did the repertoire found on this album. With ten songs offered as a healing balm for the world, Unity is Raphael and Rebecca’s prayer for this time.
Returning to Imaginary Road Studios to work with Will Ackerman and Tom Eaton, Raphael brought Rebecca and captured an album of heart-opening, soul-soothing music. Unity features Raphael’s nylon string guitar and flutes accompanied by Rebecca’s angelic violin. Rebecca’s violin shines, enriched at times with multiple layers creating an orchestral quality listeners have yet to hear in Raphael’s music. The additional highlights of Eugene Friesen on cello, Michael Manring on fretless bass and Will Ackerman’s timeless guitar weave seamlessly with the meditative and visionary qualities of this recording.

Elemental
2024-11-07 13:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Mad River Valley Arts, 5031 Main Street #2 Village Square, Waitsfield, 05673
ELEMENTAL is a group art show that speaks to the subject of water and its soulful impact in our daily lives. The global water cycle has a significant grasp on the hold of human lives and all other species with rhythms that pass through soils, vegetation and rocks before its destination into the atmospheres. Waterways from raindrop to stream-flow transport carbon and nutrients much like the human circulatory system in order to sustain life on this planet. It goes without saying we are vulnerable to the forces of water in complex ways. While water can destroy our built environment if climate ‘changes’ reach peak levels, water can also be one of our elixir’s in life, offering wisdom and endless inspiration. Artists
in Elemental share the ethereal beauty of water and ask us to reflect upon our deep connection to this element of nature. Unusual materials and whimsical forms in their varying creative practices force the viewer to contemplate colors, textures, and emotions of imaginal waterscapes, and to evoke the connection between them through the balance between harmony and disharmonies, structure and chaos and the dance between light and shadow.
