The Meacham Elevator Artist Talk and Reception
August 14 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
“The Meacham Elevator” by ceramic artists Bonnie Gilmour and Charley Farrero is a meditation in clay on what they experienced after the destruction of the grain elevator that once stood over their home village of Meacham, SK.
Everyone is invited to join Bonnie and Charley for a reception and artist talk on Wednesday, August 14 at 7:00 p.m. at the Gallery.
The presentation of this exhibit is made possible by funding from SK Arts and Sask Lotteries.
Excerpts from the Artists’ Statement:
“Bonnie’s ceramic tiles are sketches that convey the golden glory days of our province.”
“Charley’ fantastical sculptures resonate with the beholder, stories of fact, fiction and fun.”
“The ceramic sculptures presented remind us that the theoretical nature of clay, whether shaped conceptually or functionally, is to make the local permanent.”
