Unveiling Transformation Artist Reception
Pamela Wilson's exhibition, "Unveiling Transformation" at Frog Hollow Gallery, delves into transformation through interconnected artistic processes and the unwavering strength of community and place-based practice. Wilson will be exhibiting a series of yupo watercolor paintings, handwovens, and wood-fired ceramics that rely on landscape-embedded materials: indigo, shale, ash, granite, ochre, and pit black. Wilson's work, demonstrates a high level of craft and relies on labor-intensive traditions of handwork. Following the 2023 flooding events in her community of Barre, VT, driving water out of clay through firing and working at the pace of the natural world became intertwined with metaphors for community resilience and restoration.

Opening Reception - EXPIRY
Join us on Saturday, April 6th, for Jack Morris’ “EXPIRY” opening reception!
“Expiry” showcases Morris’ keen eye for captivating moments, the life existing within them, and the stories they can portray. The fragmented nature of the expired film adds a layer of intrigue, inviting viewers to piece together the narrative and contemplate the beauty of life and the impermanent.
JACK MORRIS - EXPIRY
Burlington, VT - Frog Hollow is thrilled to present “Expiry,” a solo exhibition by Stowe, VT native Jack Morris, starting April 1st. This evocative show uses a unique mosaic narrative approach, weaving a story through photographs created with expired film.
We often view photographs as an unfiltered window into the past, an accurate reflection of reality shaped by the photographer’s eye. However, Morris challenges this perception using antique cameras and new and expired film. The unpredictability of this medium becomes a collaborator in his creative process. Morris embraces the dichotomy between photography’s ability to portray the world accurately, and the uncertainty of his analog approach. Without screens, live feedback, or guarantees of results. Every variable is determined by Morris, and any oversight means a moment not captured. “It’s the act of creating an image rather than simply getting an image.”

THE RESCUE DOGS
Frog Hollow proudly presents a series of wood-carved dog sculptures by artist Norton Latourelle. Norton is retiring and these dogs are part of his final collection. They include the firsts of a series of many breeds, old favorites he kept, and others that have simply appeared through long-ago inspiration. These “shelter” dogs have been living at Norton’s Gallery and this Christmas they are hoping to find their “Forever Homes.”
