ART AT THE ARBORETUM

Asheville, NC and the surrounding areas are known for its art.....truly you can't go very far in any direction without experiencing work by inspiring artists.  From now till May 10th, Environmental Impact ll is on display at the NC Arboretum.  It features more than 50 artworks, including paintings, photography, sculptures, and fiber.

Here are just a few at the Baker Exhibit Center that caught my eye.








This last one really intrigued me.  There was a binder viewers could look through that provided explanations and locations of the forest fires.  The transferred colors and textures on the sheer fabrics were astonishingly good.

I'm sure you could get absorbed in viewing the art here. Very impactful and thought provoking.
