Carol Wallace: ‘Give or Take a Few Million Years’
“In retrospect, I feel like my work as a geologist was, in fact, my art education.” Give or Take a Few Million Years reflects Carol Wallace’s experience with the ridgelines and landscapes of her past life through drawings, paintings, and textiles that build a dreamlike, otherworldly exhibition worth delving into.
Geologic imagery is stitched and inked on layers of silk organza, magnified minerals of local bedrock are projected onto the gallery wall, biomorphic shapes are sculpted onto fractured rock, and ink drawings remind us that a rock is much more than its exterior surface.
Give or Take a Few Million Years opens Friday, November 17 with a reception from 7-9 pm at the Nelson Museum. The exhibition runs until Saturday, February 24.
