The ritual of cutting, tearing, pasting and layering is rich and has keenly engaged Jacob for over forty years. She approaches collage as a live medium using new and found papers given to her by family members and friends: Braille documents, photographs, seismic records of earthquake events. The ice landscape has been a sustaining interest for many years. With it she explores the relationship between scale and illusion, and things that loom, things that come into sight indistinctly, seemingly at a distance or through a fog. She works with this looming brooding sense of landscape fusing ancient geology with implied and equally ancient human presence.
Reception, Sunday, Nov. 20, 2-4 p.m.
