About Karin Denson…in her own words:
“I was born in Poland (Silesia), grew up in Germany, and moved with my family to the US in 2014. For many years I worked as a special education, Montessori, and art teacher, and only recently began devoting my time mainly to art. My appreciation for nature is deeply rooted in my upbringing and the environments in which I was raised. As a child I spent a lot of time outdoors and surrounded by animals. I find inner peace and balance on hikes and walks where I observe wildlife and collect videos as the basis for my paintings. Then I process these videos digitally with the goal of generating glitches and exposing unexpected creations and worlds that are latent in the material. In my work with glitches and their inherent temporalities, I’m seeking to express my worries, but especially my care for the instability of ecosystems, the impermanence, transience, and volatility of species, and to freeze and visualize some of these fleeting and irretrievable moments in the medium of acrylics.”
Edgewater Gallery’s “New Beginnings” show illuminates new directions our members are pursuing as a new year begins. Margaret Paul’s new series of fine silver pendants depicting things people are passionate about makes it possible for them to wear their passion as a piece of jewelry.
Two examples: a painter’s palette pendant; a dog paw pendant. Ene Bender’s inspired oil paintings are the result of exploring where her imagination leads her. Her recent Coastal Calla Lilies painting is an excellent example of her approach to art. For Ene, each painting is a new beginning.
Join us on First Friday to celebrate the work of our Featured Artist Karin Denson and our group show, “New Beginnings.” Light refreshments served. Masks optional. Visit us at: www.edgewater-gallery.com
