Josh Simpson
Inner and Outer Space...the Visionary Landscapes of
Josh Simpson
March 11 - April 5
"Along with the natural world, my motivation comes directly from the material itself. Glass is an alchemic blend of sand and metallic oxides combined with extraordinary, blinding heat. The result is a material that flows and drips like honey. When it's hot, glass is alive. It moves gracefully and inexorably in response to gravity and centrifugal force. It possesses an inner light and transcendent radiant heat that makes it simultaneously one of the most frustrating - and one of the most rewarding - materials to work with. I attempt to coax it; all it wants to do is drip on the floor. Most of my work reflects a compromise between me and the glass; the finished piece is the moment in time when we agree." |

Janice Vitkovsky
Ephemeral Mapping
April 22 - May 17
"The murrine technique is paramount to the execution of my work, allowing me to create intricate flowing patterns. The glass is cut and layered into strips, fused, then stretched numerous times to create the patterns. The glass is then fused again, carved and hand finished." |

Cindy Hickok
With Thread in Needle
and Tongue in Cheek
May 20 - June 14
The history of art can be seen as an attempt to balance these two intentions: to create the illusion of three dimensions, or focus more on an interpretive, abstract quality, thereby enhancing pattern and decoration. This reflects the contrast between a literal and symbolic view of the world—confirming what we perceive—contrasted with what we feel about what we perceive. |

Glass Week End at Wheaton Village
June 10 - 12
This important American glass industry began in southern New Jersey because of the availability of natural resources such as wood, sand, soda ash and silica. The nation’s earliest successful glass factory was founded in 1789 by Caspar Wistar in nearby Salem County in Millville. The biannnual "Glass Weekend" features lectures, demonstrations by world renown glass artists, and an art fair featuring approximately 20 galleries, including Jane Sauer Gallery. Definately a very interesting weekend! |

Irina Zaytceva
Sense and Sensuality
July 15 - August 9
Having illustrated a number of children's books, Irina found that her love for sculpting offered a wider range of expressing her artistic views. Porcelain had a particular attraction for Irina for all its historical importance as well as for the finer grain this material offered as opposed to other ceramics. She developed several unique techniques that have never been used before, setting fewer limits to her
creativity. All of her works are |
|
created using highfired porcelain, overglaze as well as underglaze colors and 18K gold. |
|
Kay Sekimachi
Kay's Treasures
July 22- August 16
Spanning a fifty-year career, Sekimachi’s work is known for its elegant simplicity and superb craftsmanship. She has headed a revolution in fiber arts over the decades with her work in handmade papers combined with woven fibers. Now Sekimachi leads the field again with work she has never shown before: delicately woven scrolls, or makimono, and wall hangings. |

Carol Emarthle - Douglas
August 12 - September 6
“Basket weaving is a very time consuming art,” says Carol. “People that do it must be dedicated because it is not easy to mass-produce baskets. The traditional materials are getting harder to find and gather, but by learning new techniques and incorporating contemporary materials we can perpetuate and promote the art of Native American basketry.” |

Chuck Savoie
Pattern and Light
September 9 - October 11
"Within this body of work I strive to take the tradition of venetian "cup" making and add another page. I make all my own glasses from scratch, from sand, using none of the commercially made color bars. Some of the formulas I use are 17th century venetian and bohemian formulas, which I have modified. By going to this length it allows me to control my pallet and working in qualities of my own glass so my line of work is second to none." |

Judith Content
Desert Rain
Works on Silk
October 14 - November 15
"My current work explores a contemporary interpretation of the traditional Japanese dye technique called arashi-shibori. My hand-dyed, pieced and quilted silk wall pieces are inspired by the interplay of light and shadow as fog descends and dissipates along the Pacific coast. I liken my pieces to the evocative Japanese haiku and often utilize an abstract interpretation of the kimono form." |

Charla Khanna
Plainsong
November 26 - December 14
The dolls of Charla Khanna hang on the wall as works of textile art: “These are not dolls or little people,” Khanna says, explaining that the dolls are “manifestations of the human spirit, of the varied aspects of the human psyche.” They are “expressions of states of being,” she adds. Thus Khanna clearly dismisses any notion that her dolls are merely decorative or trivial, as beautiful as they are. |
