In this show we explore how color and abstract elements, like tin, combine to create depth, meaning and new beginnings. The new show runs January 5 through February 19, 2011 and features the recycled tin artwork of Jenny Fillius and the photography of Gail Yampol. As usual, the galley also features a stunning array of locally crafted glass, pottery, jewelry, fine art and more. If you haven’t visited us in our new location what are you waiting for?

The work I create comes from my imagination. Anything can trigger an idea, an overheard expression, a story, something I see on the street; literally anything. These ideas get sketched out and eventually end up as artwork in recycled tin, or more accurately recycled decorative sheet metal. By repurposing used metal food containers, gleaned from dumpsters and many other sources; deconstructing them to be reconfigured into something other than their original form or intent, it becomes artwork as a still life or a narrative piece. The metal has had its life, served its purpose and now with its scratches, dents and unknown history, it is reinvented. www.jennyfillius.com
