Lydia Gifford @ Alma Pearl Gallery

The exhibition draws its title from a poem by Henry David Thoreau, Low Anchored Cloud.  The connection with the natural environment is a primary concern of Lydia Gifford’s most recent body of work while maintaining a critical engagement with paintings, which verge into three-dimensional forms.   These sculptural and fragile objects, respond to gestures woven through layers, creases, overlaps, and folds, all drawing from seasonal landscapes and geologies.
