Tomato of Time features textile works by the six members of Upcountry Fiber Artists – Evelyn Beck, Lynne Harrill, Sara Quattlebaum, Cynthia Steward, Denny Webster, and Kathryn Weston. The pomodaro (tomato in English) technique involves working in 25-minute intervals with 5 minutes of rest. While experimenting with this technique, the group of artists found they tended to approach concepts of time in unique ways, reflecting their diverse styles of art. This was the starting point for artistic reflections on the meaning of time. From interpretations of the tomato-shaped timer itself, the Upcountry Fiber Artists delved into examinations of the past, the present, and the future, which are featured in this group exhibition. The artists will host a free public reception at the gallery from 5-7pm on Friday, January 9.
