Ann Chadwick Reid, Vortex, 2017, Hand cut paper and map pins, 50" x 50" x 2"

Ann Chadwick Reid's hand cut paper is as fragile as the environment and intended to celebrate the special nature and remarkable diversity of her intertidal home on Padilla Bay as well as other regions in the Pacific Northwest. Her artwork addresses the impact of human activities on whole ecosystems as well as individual species and she believes the challenge is for communities to initiate and support conversations that lead to just cooperation and sustainable solutions. Winner of a 2024 Artists Trust SOLA Award, she also received an Artist Trust GAP grant in 2010 and attended the Brush Creek Ranch Residency in 2017. Her work can be seen in the collection of Kent City Hall, Kent, WA., Island Hospital, Anacortes, WA., Skagit Regional Clinics, Mount Vernon, WA., King County Public Art Collection, WA., and the Stephens Permanent Collection at the Jundt Museum, Gonzaga University, Spokane, WA.

Johsel Namkung, Chandalar River Alaska September 1987, Print, 24" x 30" Woodside /Braseth Gallery, Seattle

Publication "Johsel Namkung A Retrospective" is included with print

Born in Korea, Johsel Namkung (1919-2013) emigrated to the United States in 1947. "My photography is very strongly based on music. I think photography is the reflection of things which already exist in their own right, but they need an artist so that they may be fully seen and understood by (us). These worldly things may be in physical form, as the setting moon, or in the form of sound, as ocean breakers pounding on the shore and rain tinkling down on the gravel. In my work, I would like to impart that impression of sound, music, emotion or philosophy, whatever you will, of that moment when you are on the top of the mountain standing all by yourself with your camera, that moment's loneliness and exultation. I would like to impart not just visual sensations but the third dimension of the visual world." - Johsel Namkung
