We’re Still Talking is an exhibit about relationships. About three friends and fibre artists that travelled together to a small remote island for ten days to pursue their individual and joint artistic vision.  Their experimentation with materials and plant dyes will be showcased in this unique group exhibition. 

The Artists:

Nadine Papp is a fibre artist working with a variety of materials that help her create different pieces of art. Her love of all things natural inspire the cloth she stitches, dyes, cuts and forms. Her focus is on repetitive stitch which is recognizable in her works. 

Wendy Wood is a multidisciplinary artist, who has been creating art her whole life. She started as an electrical draftsperson, and the love of using a pencil led to a career in landscape painting. She was introduced to crochet at a very young age and that appreciation of fiber crept back into her life in woven form.  After years of painting and weaving, the two very different art forms have begun to merge into Wendy’s work; a combination of colour and texture, paint and fiber, an exploration that is just beginning. 

Sandi Luck is a fibre artist residing in Haliburton. Her current practice explores themes of fantastical nature through embellished felt jewellery, natural dyes and botanical prints. She employs bright colours and multiple layers of stitch, beading and natural fibre to create texture and whimsy. Her work has been featured in Fiber Arts Now Magazine, Worldwide Colors of Felt and other publications in addition to many local Haliburton exhibitions, most recently at Fleming College Faculty Exhibition 2024. 

The opening reception with the artists takes place on Saturday, March 22 from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.  All are welcome.  Refreshments will be served.
