APRIL DRESSED IN ALL ITS TRIM

DEEPLY ROOTED

AN ONLINE EXHIBITION OF ARTWORK
​FEATURING JEANNETTE MACDOUGALL + MIKE MARTIN
DEEPLY ROOTED is a collaborative exhibition of etched encaustic botanicals by Jeannette MacDougall and collagraph prints by Mike Martin. The artists have reached deep into their respective familial soils and uprooted personal stories symbolically grafted onto finely illustrated branches, roots and trees. Through processes of layering, imprinting and excavation, MacDougall and Martin weave together private and universal iconography that invites the viewer to contemplate their own personal growth and roots.

At all times during business and special events, we ask that masks be worn and social distancing be practiced.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

​​ARTIST STATEMENT
"These excavations of botanical forms in wax and plaster are a deeply personal exploration of my roots, yet the symbolism is universal. Entangled as we are with the soils of our past--the bittersweetness of nostalgia, private tragedies and triumphs, relationships to other and interconnectedness of all--these are the nourishment of our now and future selves. We are sustained by the light, always reaching toward it, and if we allow ourselves, always growing while firmly, deeply rooted."

    — Jeannette MacDougall

ARTIST STATEMENT
​“I have always had a love for the outdoors and hold a special reverence for trees. I experiment with the medium of printmaking to produce semi-abstract landscape trees. The prints are variable editions (VE) using mat board. I attempt to obtain an interesting texture using different materials, and I search for a print that has an organic, natural looking design that is strong and rich in value."

– Mike Martin

"Then shall all the trees of the wood shout for joy before the Lord when he comes to judge the earth." Psalm 96:12
