Artist: Emrose Venue: The Lavatory Gallery @ Push/Pull / 5484 Shilshole Ave NW Event: April 19th 6pm - 9pm www.facebook.com/events/161407544539616/ Showing through: June 15th Stop in to see the opening of Bondedpaper by Emrose in our Lavatory Gallery. We'll have art on display through June 15th. Emrose is a Ballard-born papercrafter and mixed-media artist specializing in the formation of layers to convey her ideas. She graduated from Western Washington University with a degree in design and picked up her minimalist style from studying and working around the uncluttered design language that goes into product and user experience design. Combined with her love of needlepoint, her Bondedpaper line explores the intricate shapes and patterns of Shibari rope tying through paper and thread while staying true to the simplicity of minimalism. Bondedpaper started as a way to express sexuality in a simple and gentle way, and has since evolved to become an exploration of the human body and embroidery techniques. The neat, clean lines and methodical process of both Shibari and needlepoint illustrates the thought, patience, and perfectionism Emrose puts into all of her artwork. Other works of hers stay within the layered paper style of illustration, but are often larger and more detailed, using as many layers as the paper will support to show the depth of each piece. To stay up to date and see her most recent work, check out at @bondedpaper on Instagram or contact her for more info on her other works.

We will pull some tasty bottles from the cellar, so drop by and toast the season and the one-of-a-kind experimental prints by Thomas Condon and Juan Manuel Fernandez now on view through May 12th. Cheers Rain or Shine, Dan Shepherd, GALLERY 1/1 Director/Owner Featured Artists Tom Condon received his BFA in Painting from Virginia Tech and his MFA in Photography & Film from Virginia Commonwealth University, VCUarts. At GALLERY 1/1 we love to see the “hand of the artist” expressed in the prints we exhibit and Tom Condon exemplifies that amalgam of painting and photography with his unique silver gelatin chemigrams. Tom was a sucessful young painter until a life-changing accident shattered both of his arms leaving him unable to paint the same without pain. He turned to photography as his new medium and has refound his artistic voice with the painterly chemigram method of making prints. This experimental process utilizes a painterly application of photochemistry to light sensitive paper creating new imagery that Tom describes as an “imagining of the simultaneous impossibility of the abstract and the familiarity of the real.” We are presenting Tom’s Seattle debut exhibition with a selection of exciting new work in his Homomorphism series made during his current tenure as a Staff Artist for the Vermont Studio Center. See more of hisunique prints on our website. Juan Manuel Fernandez is an artist and educator based in the Aurora, Illinois. GALLERY 1/1 is pleased to present the Pacific Northwest debut of Juan's "Objective" series of tintype photograms. His series puts a contemporary twist on the historic wet plate collodion process to create photogram tintypes of geometric designs that defy the first impression of just simple shapes to reveal a much more complex and multifaceted construction the deeper you look. This reflects some of Juan's experience growing up as a Latino in the American Midwest. As a father of young children, Juan was inspired to see the world through their eyes particularly with their interest in colorful geometric shapes and how they are constructed. When not in the darkroom making personal work, Juan is an Adjunct Professor of Photography at Judson University, Elgin Community College, and Waubonsee Community College. He earned a BFA in Photography from Columbia College Chicago and an MFA from Northern Illinois University. Collections holding Juan's photography include Rockford Art Museum, The Center for Photography at Woodstock, Museum of Contemporary Photography, and Columbia College Chicago. See more of is unique prints on our website.
