From the organic and beautifully patinated wood forms of Patricia Lyons Stroud to the hypnotic swirl of thread and self help book spines of Lisa Kokin’s “Panacea Pizpereta”, the Summer Salon exhibition at Seager Gray continues the tradition of bringing works together from a wide variety of artisitic practices and materials. The exhibition features artwork never shown before in the gallery in bronze, glass, porcelain, oil, wood, paper and cloth.  It is truly a delightful display of various works made from various mediums.
