SUMMARY:Studio Tour with Artist Ann B. Coddington
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, May 14th at 12 noon\, please join Textile Arts Los Angeles for a fascinating look into artist Ann B. Coddington‘s practice and studio. \n$10 public / Free for members \nARTIST STATEMENT\nMy artwork borrows the technique twining from the traditional craft of basketry to create a sculptural expression of my beliefs and experiences and how they are sensed by the body. I am intrigued by the process of and differences between feeling and knowing; body and mind. Ineffable memories held by the body are more potent\, penetrating and enduring than those in the mind. My forms are actuated by this somatic memory in conjunction with an investigation of the dichotomies: eternal and ephemeral\, strength and fragility\, masculine and feminine\, free and captive\, old and young\, living and dead. \nAs the world becomes increasingly technological\, my work moves in the opposite direction to the point where now I tie two pieces of string together\, bend some sticks\, form plaster in my hands\, and mold clay. Reducing art-making down to the most elemental means of expression\, the simplest creative task challenges and satisfies me. Much of my current artwork pushes back against the world of increasingly complex technologies that\, paradoxically\, in an effort to connect us\, instead separates and isolates us\, removing us from authentic experience. The slow building of one stitch upon another exists within an ancient time frame\, virtually un-experienced in the contemporary\, digital society. My art is my voice\, more than my words and in my work\, feeling overshadows knowing.

SUMMARY:Studio Tour with Artist Lesley Kice Nishigawara
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, 4/30 from 12:00 to 1:00 PM\, please join Textile Art Los Angeles for a studio tour with artist\, educator\, weaver\, and keen observer Lesley Kice Nishigawara. \nARTIST STATEMENT\nMy work explores the world around us with a system of visual examination. The grid frames my work in both a conceptual and practical manner. Conceptually\, the grid reflects a need for regulation and perfection; a method or system of organization. With the aim for exacting and ordered spaces\, slippages in the grid appear within varied applications and renditions. Explorations into these concepts present misalignments that occur within a desire for order. Through various translations including reflections and shadows\, each articulation is created following a system of self-imposed rules to shift into new forms\, images\, and ideas. Practically\, it creates a structure for my ideas to unfold. \nThe work takes on multiple formal configurations to probe these ideas. Large-scale tiled textile works produce a soft and elegant interpretation of misaligned urban patterns. Layered drawings create space to activate the work through shadows and perspectival shifts. Throughout the work\, the complexity of order and structure is exposed through these iterations. \nTranslating the grid and patterns that appear through human intervention in our built environment produces an expanded view of the world. Highlighting and refiguring the nuanced visual elements—from the regularity of a chain link fence to a shadow projected from an overpass—this work is developed through a series of iterative examinations that develop beyond their original form and meaning. It acknowledges that the simple is often more complex as it is explored; the perfect is often more imperfect than at first glance. It exposes that the limits of perfection have endless possibilities. \nTickets: $10 public / Free for members
