Winterthur lounge

 

We spent several weeks in residence as part of a fellowship in 2020, then in 2021 we were invited to transform one of the exhibition lounges. We painted a mural, two benches, made two lamps, and a series of hand carved sculptural printing blocks.

FROM WINTERTHUR: Transformations highlights work by Winterthur’s Maker-Creator Fellows, who receive special access to the collections and staff for research and inspiration….  

In the lounge, usually furnished in a modern style, Hall painted a folk-art mural of the Winterthur landscape with depictions of Canada geese, blossoming tree limbs, leaves, twigs, and other objects that found their way into their sketchbooks and photo library while they wandered the grounds. Hardison decorated the shelves with woodblocks carved with similar natural imagery to acknowledge their work as printmakers.
