New JHP exhibit: “Natural Gestures,” with work from Emily Donovan

The Johnson Heritage Post Art Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming gallery show, Natural Gestures, a solo exhibition of work from artist Emily Donovan.
Drawing deep inspiration from the landscape, Donovan utilizes historical methods to forage and procure natural pigments directly from plants and insects.
 
Of her work, she says, “I like to think about what can be sourced from nature's bounty and how to incorporate ideas from traditional craft into a modern approach to batik.”

An opening reception will be held on Friday, June 19, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at JHP. During this event, Emily will give an artist talk at 6 p.m., where she will discuss her natural dying process.
 
The exhibit will run through July 12.
 
Admission to JHP is free, with donations graciously accepted.
