Uma obra de arte aromática. @ruby_silvious foi a nossa inspiração. Pensar o saquinho de chá como suporte para experimentações artísticas. "Tati, eu adoro arte abstrata", " neste foi colocar um pouquinho chá, para me acalmar". Pensamos este momento como uma pausa para o chá, pausa para o respiro, pausa para acalmar a correria diária, nosso encontro foi uma pausa para pensar em arte e se deixar levar por ela. #cha #arte #artecontemporânea #horadocha #pintura #arteabstrata #tdtati

I had so much fun attending the opening reception for the 34th Annual Strathmore Juried Exhibition: Steeped, a tea-themed art exhibit celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Strathmore Mansion’s afternoon tea program. (Jurors: Adah Rose Bitterbaum and Darryl Patterson) I was so excited to meet @ruby_silvious ! In the Summer of 2023, after hearing about her amazing tea bag paintings from my daughter (who saw them at an exhibit at @albanyinstitute ), I took Ruby’s on-line recorded class and was inspired by her to begin painting on recycled tea bags! One of her paintings in the Strathmore exhibition, Red Kimono, was awarded Best in Show (see images in my reel)! It was also great to see @jkb.art and @karen_merkin_art and their paintings. One of Karen’s paintings was awarded Honorable Mention. In this reel, I’ve included images of their work, as well some of the other incredible artwork, in the exhibition. @prithasfineart @dorapatinart @amandacoelhoart I was also interviewed briefly (in front of my tea bag painting “Strathmore’s Four Teasons”) for a Strathmore film to support funding for the arts! I was happy to talk about the terrific work Strathmore staff and volunteers do as well as how wonderful Strathmore Mansion venue is. @exhibitions.at.strathmore @strathmorearts On Friday, April 3, from 12-3 pm, plein air artists from @maaartists will be painting on the Strathmore Mansion grounds. It would be a great time to see the Exhibition (which closes April 22) and talented plein air artists at work! #artexhibit #teabagart #artforsale
