“FreeForm: Exploring the Creative Process” is an exhibition of work by Leslie Giuliani and Roxy Savage taking place at the Visual and Performing Arts Center at Western Connecticut State University from Thursday, January 30th through March 8th 2020. The VPAC is located at 43 Lake Ave Ext, Danbury, CT 06811, and the gallery is on the 2nd floor.
There is an opening reception from 6 pm to 8 pm on January 30th. It is free, but requested that attendees register via Eventbrite.
From WCSU’s website: ‘This exhibition will demonstrate how the artists inspire each other, and how their personal interests and technological means determine and influence the artwork they make,’ Giuliani observed in her artist statement. “The works in this show will feature individually created projects as well as collaborative pieces, focusing on each artist’s unique vision and love of play. Play and experimentation are essential elements to each artist’s practice'.
Giuliani and Savage met in a print shop more than a decade ago and developed a friendship based in part on their encouragement of each other to explore artistic media and techniques previously unfamiliar to them. Savage, a master printmaker, inspired Giuliani to begin making prints as part of her creative work. Giuliani taught Savage in the use of encaustic wax techniques and the incorporation of sewing into her creative process.”
