Crystal Marie: Landscapes: Land & Body

@ Blue Moon Gallery

18620 Belvidere Rd, Grayslake IL 60030

Opening Saturday, September 25th, from 6PM - 9PM

On view through Tuesday, October 12th

Momigami is the ancient Japanese craft of kneading paper in order to produce a durable, leather-like surface that is revered in the West as bookbinding paper, but traditionally used for clothing, umbrellas, and other everyday items by the Japanese working class. Crystal uses both traditional and contemporary methods to produce tantalizing textures and interesting designs in the surface of the paper, each very distinct from the other, to create striking visual imagery in her Landscapes: Land and Body collection of new works.

Says Crystal Marie: “Landscapes: Land and Body” is a visual and visceral experience illustrating, through evocative materials, terrain which may at once be found on the land beneath my feet and that which covers my body.
