SUMMARY:In Awe of Nature: Two Artistic Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Stéphanie Elkort and Judith Stein \nOn view July 20 – September 4\, 2024.  \n“When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it\, it’s your world for a moment.  I want to give that world to someone else.”  Georgia O’Keefe \nEnchanted by the beauty and intricacies of flowers and foliage\, Stéphanie and Judith embarked on a joint project of creating photographs and monoprints that were coordinated in some artistic way – shapes\, colors\, rhythms\, or textures.  Their collaboration sparked their creativity and fueled their productivity.  Their hope is that viewers will be intrigued by the fine details\, the subtle and muted color palettes\, and the varied textures embedded in these works.  Their goal is to engage viewers\, bring them   closer to their creative processes\, and share their love and appreciation of nature’s beauty.  \nJudith’s botanical monoprints were created by spreading thin layers of acrylic paint on a gelli-plate and applying a variety of dried leaves\, feathers\, and petals.  Then paper is put on top\, pressed\, and peeled off to create each monoprint.  The prints are all on acid-free Japanese rice\, mulberry and tea bag papers.  \nStéphanie’s digital photographs tend toward hyperrealism and minimalism.  Usually shot with her favorite macro lens\, her giclée prints are rendered as matte images on fine art paper with a subtle texture\, often leading viewers to ask if they are paintings.  \n  \n
