Join us on Friday, October 4th at 5:00 pm for the opening reception of The Art of Memory, a solo exhibition showcasing the collage and assemblage works of Anastasia Osolin. Anastasia Osolin creates collages and assemblages from a wide variety of found objects and imagery gathered from flea markets, yard sales, old books, antique shops, the occasional garbage dump, or sometimes literally found on the ground during her daily walks in and around Saranac Lake, NY. Drawing inspiration from the history of science & astronomy, mysticism, art history, Victorian ephemera, and industrial decay (i.e. just about anything old and rusty), Anastasia is an avid recycler, re-purposer, and collector of curiosities. She enjoys the serendipity of rootling around and allowing herself to be surprised and inspired by whatever she happens to find. She sees a profound beauty in the patina of age that can only be produced by time and experience, and aims to give new life to objects that have outlasted their usefulness and been discarded, overlooked or forgotten.
Originally from the Washington DC area, Anastasia has a B.F.A. in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Her artwork has previously been exhibited at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts, BluSeed Studios, View Center for Arts & Culture, NorthWind Fine Arts, Downtown Artist Cellar and the Adirondack Artists Guild, of which she has been a member since 2016.
This event is FREE and open to the public!
