Linda Leviton:
Linda Levitons' "quilts" evoke the colors and textures
of nature. She uses etching, dyes, patinas and paint to treat
the surface and form subtle or vibrantly colored designs.
The pieces are modular so they can be hung to form one large
piece or mounted as smaller separate units creating ease and
flexibility for large installations as well as changing interior
spaces.
Since copper is so wonderfully malleable, Leviton shapes
it using techniques from many disciplines including blacksmithing,
sheet metal construction, welding, silversmithing and printmaking.
These shapes form a module or basic form. The basic forms
are combined into larger more involved shapes, sometimes representational,
sometimes abstract. But the connection with nature is always
an undertone.
Each year, the Katie Gingrass Gallery takes Linda Leviton's
work to SOFA.
