melissa matson
artisan-dyed fabrics and garments

drawn together (2016)


This exhibit at the Geisel Gallery (Legacy Tower building, One Bausch & Lomb Place, Rochester NY) featured the work of three Rochester artists: Nancy Valle (ceramics), A. J. Dungan (abstract paintings), and Melissa Matson (dyed fabric plus three-dimensional paper vests made from duett collaborations with David Chamberlain). Arranged in mixed groupings by curator Jean Geisel, the works are wonderfully "drawn together" by their textures, colors, and energy.
