For the fall, I will be participating in a group art exhibition curated by Teresa Seaton at the Teresa Seaton Gallery in Burlington, Ontario. You can see the details of the exhibition as well as my art in the exhibition’s catalogue below. See artwork from myself - Jackie Partridge and other local artists
Birds Adapted: for Flight or Fancy is a juried exhibition I am a part of that is at the Teresa Seaton Gallery in Burlington, ON from Aug. 14-Oct. 26, 2019.
Here is a page about my installation Nestled that was a part of the group exhibition catalogue.
In this exhibition I am displaying my installation Nestled made from twisted map paper to resemble a nest or a home. I have exhibited Nestled before on the floor. This will be the first time exhibiting Nestled up high. I was excited to present the artwork this way because I think it will look more like a nest. This piece is very textured as strands of twisted map paper interweave together. What I like about this piece is that it can transform depending where it is installed. I can keep twisting map paper and add to the size of this artwork. I will have some pieces of map paper on the floor as well to invite viewers to look up. This installation is also related to the installation Precariously Perched where I have strands of twisted maps that balance on tiny pins and nails, resting in a fragile state against the wall.
In my art practice, I love working with the same materials and reworking them to make new art installations.
