Pelino takes over the Elevator

Posted

LIVINGSTON MANOR, NY — The Catskill Art Society presents “Skunk Cabbage Bog,” an exhibition of artwork by Leslie Pelino, in the Elevator Gallery at the CAS Arts Center at 48 Main St., from October 15 through November 20.
“Skunk Cabbage Bog” is a fiber art assemblage installation from reclaimed clothing and household and garden materials, conceived by artist Leslie Pelino as a transformation of place. She creates a magical journey into an alternate fantasy world of a deep woodland skunk cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus) bog, a reinterpretation of her favorite real-life Hudson Valley marshland destination.


Created with large, abstractly representational LED-lit sculptures, vinyl wall decals of actual plants, and a digital photo slideshow of skunk cabbages and other marshland foliage taken over the course of a year, including recordings of the location’s nature sounds. “Skunk Cabbage Bog” will immerse the viewer in sound, color and curiosity.


Gallery hours are Thursdays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. to  6 p.m., Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Mondays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.  For more information visit www.catskillartsociety.org.
