Tinney Contemporary is proud to present Uncanny Visions & Tangled Terrain, a solo exhibition featuring works by Lori Anne Parker-Danley. The exhibition will be on display March 2, 2024 through March 30, 2024. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 2nd from 2—8 PM in conjunction with the First Saturday Art Crawl.
Parker-Danley’s artistic practice attunes to moments of transformation, pressing into often-arbitrary notions of difference and acknowledging the interconnectedness of all things. Through dance, drawing, painting, and textile works, the artist works to communicate the inherent textures and movements of objects. Employing traditional quilting techniques, the works feature vivid organic forms, entangled foliage, fruit, vines, and flowers. Parker-Danley quilts with an improvisatory flair that manifests in lively, sprawling compositions.
The wall-hung tapestries in Uncanny Visions & Tangled Terrain are simultaneously familiar and strange. Thin cotton converses with thicker felt, and delicate thread sketches palimpsest over wilder thread lines and bold, colorful shapes. Angles merge and contrast with biomorphic shapes eliciting imaginations of abandoned cityscapes, underwater tableaux, landscapes from another planet, or feral vegetation from unknown worlds.
