    Description

    In the Park View Gallery, we present Scheherazade: Narrating An Artist’s Exploration of Crafts, Culture and Creativity, a
    solo exhibition of works by Mary Mallia. The works featured in this exhibition explore the many ways in which Mallia
    expressed her artistry through a variety of media. From drawing to painting to quilting to dioramas to clothing and
    jewelry, Mallia enjoyed the problem solving involved with the process of creating each piece. Even if it meant putting
    things together only to have to take them apart and reposition everything, that process motivated and excited her
    throughout her life. Her work reflected her admiration for different cultures around the world. Inspired by Asian
    aesthetics, she created her jewelry line Jewels for Scheherazade. Each piece included handmade decoupage beads
    containing images or patterns from India, China, Southeast Asia, the Middle East or North Africa. She hoped that
    those who wore her pieces were just as inspired by the innovative female character and storyteller, Scheherazade, in
    Tales from the Arabian Nights as she was.

    Park View Gallery Hours: Mondays - Saturdays, 10 am – 6 pm, April 2, 2022 - May 1, 2022

    Description

    The Popcorn Gallery presents Decades Ahead: Visions of the Future, featuring the works of over 20 artists based in the DC Metro Area. This year, the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture is celebrating its 20th anniversary. As we reflect on our achievements and contributions to the arts community over the last two decades, we also look ahead and consider how we can have a greater impact in the region in the decades to come. To commemorate the anniversary, we invited local artists to submit works that convey their vision for the future. The works in this exhibition explore the concept of the future from personal, cultural, social and political lenses. Through a variety of media, including but not limited to painting, drawing, sculpture, and textile work, the artists featured in this exhibition share their many different visions of what the future may hold. Some present concerns about our environment and relationship with technology, while others offer utopian visions for the way society can become more inclusive and vibrant. Together, the works featured here invite viewers to ponder their own idea of what the future holds. What will society look like in decades to come? How would the arts impact our culture decades from now?
