Weavings by Lamine Diouf
A curated collection of wall hangings and pillows by multi-disciplinary artist, Lamine Diouf will be on display. This collection is a collaboration, made especially for Glasswing and available in limited quantities in-store and online. Though the materiality is the same, no two pieces are exactly alike! Each tells its own story, its own sense of place and time. Diouf is from Senegal but lives and works in Belgium. His weavings can also be seen in select accessories and pieces from the Jan-Jan Van Essche Collection, also available at Glasswing.
Ceramics by George Nakamura
A collection of functional and beautiful ceramics by George Nakamura. His work embraces an outlook that favors craftsmanship over novelty. Each piece embodies a special kind of modesty that is dignified and harmonious, offering the beholder a generous sense of ease in relation to their environment. Through his range of mugs, plates, bowls and teapots (which are part of a deep lineage in Kyoto but have become a rarity in contemporary pottery), Nakamura resists the notion of tablewares as decorative artifacts and intends his creations to be a coherent part of the interior landscape.

HEDREEN GALLERY ANNOUNCES ROOTS/UPROOT HAIR SHOW : DRAG AND BURLESQUE PERFORMANCE WITH ARTIST TALK
FEATURING SHILOH DAVIES AKA SUGAR DARLING, JANE DON’T, ISSA MAN, AND MOSCATO SKY
PERFORMANCE AND ARTIST TALK November 17, 2024, 4pm
Roots/Uproot: Curated by Arielle Simmons // Through January 4, 2025
FEATURING Nadia Ahmed, Shiloh Davies, Thalía Gochez, and Lisa Jarrett
Though often dismissed as a matter of vanity, our hair has held a richly symbolic place across cultures throughout human history. In their work, artists Nadia Ahmed, Shiloh Davies, Thalía Gochez, and Lisa Jarrett consider hair’s importance as a malleable extension of ourselves. They show the power of hair in representating our self-determined identity, signaling community or heritage, and even the passage of time and space.
Multidisciplinary artist Lisa Jarrett, Associate Professor of Community and Context Arts at Portland State University, maintains a prolific practice with recent exhibitions at Portland Art Museum and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Her long running visual arts project, Migrant Studies, “examine[s] hair care and beauty routines within Black culture as a bridge to themes about inventing our own survival.”
Salvadorian Mexican American, Thalía Gochez photographs her Latinx Californian community in vivid color, merging style and storytelling. She approaches the process from a place of joyful admiration. Exhibiting nationally and internationally, her work has been seen in publications such as Aperture and The New York Times, as well as brand campaigns for Nike and Rare Beauty.
Seattle-based Shiloh Davies consciously brings play to the forefront in textile work for their own drag persona, Sugar Darling, as well as for other performers near and far. Davies has also shown at the Museum of Museums and during Seattle Pride.
Local sculptor and performance artist Nadia Ahmed is Pakistani-American, “Embracing time as a medium, [Nadia] uses her artwork to explore the failure, pain, and distortion of memory.” Developing work in artist residencies and exhibiting often, Nadia also acts as Communications Specialist for the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture.

Granular by Blake Blanco and Jade Knox: In Granular, worlds are built upon a gesture, a release of kinetic energy recorded instantly by the loaded brush moving expressively across the canvas. These moments build upon one another, react to or resist against anything that comes before or after them; they are sedimentary monuments paying tribute to the granular systems that make up the Here and Now.
Blake Blanco and Jade Knox’s paintings explore the worlds created by dynamic gestures, while Knox’s ceramic sculptures explore how these monuments shape their environment. Bringing these two perspectives of the world together - the micro and the macro - the artists find environments which challenge conventional perceptions of scale, capture the fluidity of what is seen and unseen, and invite the enraptured exploration of one’s own environment.

Valerie Calano "Perler Jam"
(Show runs through 11/30/24, Closing Dance Party @9)
Capitol Hill Art Walk, Thursday, November 14, 2024. 5-9pm
Valerie Calano transforms tiny Perler beads, a nostalgic craft from the '80s, into stunning large-scale compositions, some containing over 30,000 beads. Her journey began with a chance encounter with a bucket of beads on the sidewalk, which inspired her intricate creations. Drawing from diverse influences such as traditional rug and quilt patterns, op art, psychedelic imagery, and vintage graphic design— especially 60s and 70s book covers—Valerie’s work showcases a deep appreciation for various artistic traditions.
Her meticulous process involves delicately placing each bead on a grid with tweezers, turning the repetitive act into a meditative experience. This serene rhythm allows time to fade, although the technical challenge of fusing the beads for large-scale works adds complexity to her craft. In Valerie's hands, Perler beads evolve from a simple nostalgic medium into vibrant contemporary art pieces.
