The Open Orchard
I wanted to let you know about my new exhibition, The Open Orchard, at the McColl Center in Charlotte that runs from June 7th-August 25th.
Over the past four years I have been researching and studying the varieties that have been preserved through the Tree of 40 Fruit Project and have built an exhibition around this work, which includes Botanical Drawings, Herbarium Specimens, etc.
While in residence here, I will be making a series of hand-colored etchings based on the Botanical Drawings that will be available as a subscription that can be purchased to support preserving these varieties.
If you are in the Charlotte area on Thursday, it would be great to see you at the opening.
