Fantasies from the Urban Gardening
My Sister's Gallery
Episcopal Church Home, 505 Mt Hope Ave.
Apr 3, 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Studio Michaelino presents a retrospective at “My Sister’s Gallery.” The studio’s artists are a husband-and-wife team of photographers, urban garden enthusiasts and seed-savers. Working in their garden, Michael Tomb and Marcia Zach photograph compositions in a medium they call “organic collage.” Their palette consists of flowers, herbs, vegetables, foliage, saved seeds, and found items such as weeds, bark, broken pots and pebbles. After arranging their creations on a backyard table, they photograph using only the natural light of day.

The artists are inspired by the growing culture of restorative urban gardening. They compose imagined fantasies and abstract imagery to illustrate hopes for a future where the diverse needs for earth justice have become reality.

As you discover your own personal interpretations of these photographs, the artists hope their love for the natural beauty of this fragile planet connects with your own.

This exhibition will be on view daily until April 12th.
