Loose Leaf Notes

Liz Stucki is a multi-medium artist and Wise Woman of Mama Lizardo’s fame (a former restaurant in Floyd). She draws, has made clocks and fairy houses, writes poetry, and is such a good cookie baker that I don’t waste my time on cookies unless they’ve been made by Liz. Liz’s exhibit (pictured above) at the new Jacksonville Center show, “The Earth is Our Home,” is called “Earth is our home, but we’ve violated our lease.”

This is what you see when you open the roof and look inside.

The 24 exhibiting artists present a variety of mediums with themes related to earth stewardship. Some artists used recycled materials in their pieces. Potter Jayn Avery’s “Nest” (pictured here) incorporates litter and makes a statement about it.

Laurel Song Cook’s “Web of Light” is off-the-grid electrified. The exhibit runs until May 17th. Learn more about the Jacksonville Center for the Arts HERE. Happy Earth Day.
