Artist Talk: Saturday, July 11 at 2 PMIn Faraway, Nearby, Wendy Orville presents a series of black & white monotypes that reflect the quiet power and layered emotional resonance of the Pacific Northwest landscape. Working with a restrained visual language, her prints distill the experience of place with depth, motion, and atmosphere. The artist shares, “I carry the landscape of places I’ve lived within me. Such a wide range of landscapes to explore and translate, from the tranquil wetlands of Hood Canal to the wild animism of the La Push seastacks. Wetland grasses during high tide often remind me of calligraphic writing. Shifting weather, especially mist, makes me giddy. Wind is a silent character, defining the shape of coastal trees. Each place evokes different emotional states in me. Nothing stays the same. I return over the months and years to imagine fresh possibilities and to push my technique and vision into new territory.”
