SUMMARY:“We are Gardens Haunted by Each Other” by Michael Medeiros
DESCRIPTION:A COLLABORATION OF CLAY\, WORDS\, AND COMMUNITY AMIDST AN APOCALYPSE \n“We are Gardens Haunted by Each Other” exhibition runs through February 9th at 50 Arrow Gallery \nEASTHAMPTON\, MA – “We are Gardens Haunted by Each Other\,” the new exhibition at 50 Arrow Gallery in the Eastworks building\, opened quietly on Saturday\, December 10\, beginning nearly two months of community collaborations in art\, words\, and garden-centric myth-making facilitated by ceramic artist and poet Michael Medeiros. \nThe 192nd anniversary of the poet Emily Dickinson’s birth was marked in that space by Medeiros and\npainter Johanna Hoogendyk inscribing excerpts from Dickinson’s letters upon fifty-five small moonshaped terracotta vessels. A tribute to Dickinson’s fifty-five years of life\, each vessel would be put into a pit firing that evening to smoke the letter excerpts permanently into the clay. The vessels will be used\, throughout the duration of this exhibition\, to contain letters that will be sent daily all over the world much as Dickinson connected to the outside world amidst her solitude through her own frequent letter\nwriting. \nDickinsonian vessel-writing is just one aspect of the interactive nature of “We are Gardens Haunted by\nEach Other.” The foundation pieces in the exhibit are Medeiros’ ceramic vessels and sculptures\, largely\nmade out of locally-dug terracotta clay. Medeiros will be welcoming in collaborators throughout the run\,\nand the exhibition will organically grow through these interactions. \n“I love the opportunity to bring my own ideas into communication with others’\, setting off an entirely\nunexpected creative chemical reaction that really is one of the main catalysts of my artistic and poetic\npractice\,” says Medeiros. “It’s so exciting that Jason and Alex at 50 Arrow Gallery are allowing me to run\nin this manner\, bringing in a bunch of creative voices to expand and give expression to this imagined\nworld. I find this important because\, as one friend pointed out\, I wasn’t so much excited about the\ndebilitating event of this near-future world\, but of how human existence manages to continue on in a\nsemblance of community despite a horrid calamity.” \nExhibit collaborators are asked to share memories of gardens\, wildernesses\, and specific plants that they\nwill write about—using liquid clay as the “ink”—directly upon the pottery. Medeiros\, who is PortugueseAmerican\, then fires the pieces using a traditional pit-firing method similar to that used by Portuguese\npotters in the town of Bisalhaes to create jet black terracotta pottery. He found a technique through\ntrial and error which allows the writing to emerge in the original orange-red terracotta color within the\nsmoked black background. \nPublic events—including readings\, musical performances\, and community art and writing sessions—are\nscheduled during Easthampton Arts Walk nights on January 4 and February 3 (the closing night of the\nexhibition). \nThe initial concept for “We are Gardens Haunted by Each Other” was developed by Medeiros and his\nformer UMass MFA for Poets and Writers colleague Marcella Haddad this past spring for a live reading\nat the Allen C. Haskell Public Gardens in Medeiros’s hometown of New Bedford\, MA. They conceived a\nworld in which a debilitating (and unnamed) event had happened\, throwing everyday life into chaos.\nThe “gardens” of the exhibit title refer to the locations of imagined individuals corresponding with each\nother and trying to gain a collective understanding of the new state of the natural world\, particularly the\nhuman-cultivated aspects of that nature. Much like Dickinson\, these post-apocalyptic writers exist\nphysically in a garden solitude and connect with a larger community through their written\ncorrespondence. \n“I spent five years working at the Emily Dickinson Museum\, which informed the experiences of my own\nimagined character who was living there and chronicling the post-apocalyptic version of her family\ngardens\,” says Medeiros. “The notion of inhabiting that space in such a cataclysmic new world was the\nimpetus for this whole project\, which has evolved in some excitingly unexpected ways thanks to the\nterrific input of friends and colleagues.” \n50 Arrow Gallery is located in Suit 244 in the Eastworks Building at 116 Pleasant Street in Easthampton.

SUMMARY:Japanese kacho-e and 413 Plant Swap
DESCRIPTION:In the summer of 2016\, after working in the yard with my wife and separating tons of irises\, I decided to create a Facebook group to facilitate the sharing/trading of plants in the local area\, the 413 Plant Share & Swap. While there was slow and steady growth in the beginning\, this group exploded during the pandemic and currently has ~3800+ members with plants (and advice!) being provided every day. For a long time I wanted to explore hosting an in-person plant swap\, and I think now could be that time. \nTo kickoff a lively 2023 filled with beauty\, what better way than to host an exhibit of kacho-e (bird and flower prints) and a 413 plant swap? \nWith that in mind\, this is what we’re doing: \n\nPeruse the art at your leisure\nSome small snacks and beverages\nBring cuttings (labelled please!) to share if you have some\nBring a way to take new cuttings or plants home with you\n\nRSVP is encouraged so we can plan accordingly!
