Exhibition Reception with the Artists
/ Saturday, October 4, 4-8PM

Poet and/the Bench begins a series of celebrations of emerging contemporary design for their 10th year anniversary in November. On October 4, visiting Topanga Canyon-based fine artist Danielle Hutchens will be in person for her Between Soil and Sky exhibition reception.
Avigail Remak
Danielle has adopted using earth-friendly practices in her art. Her paintings primarily feature natural pigments she harvests and develops, a beautifully archival and non-toxic medium. Her new collection was created after the Los Angeles fires when “small things– tender shoots, shy buds– started to unfurl. Life, working underground in the quiet dark, was beginning again and in a soft, yet vibrant way.”
11 new works will be featured alongside new potter, Avigail Remak who is inspired by the resilient plants of the desert, their surprising variety and their tough defenses of spikes and thorns.
Tickets going fast! Grab your friends and let’s enjoy getting creative together!
