Eve Müller and Kelly Terwilliger will read excerpts from Water Questions, their collaborative, book-length work based on a series of twelve swims in different bodies of wild Oregon water. Some of this work was published by McKenzie River Trust as part of their Winter Writers Series, On This Land.

Current Show exhibition
April 2 - May 24, 2025
Simply titled WATER, Karin Clarke Gallery's large invitational exhibit expands on the artistic exploration of this vital substance, with nine of the Pacific Northwest's finest artists celebrating its beauty and power: Marit Berg, Margaret Coe, Matthew Dennison, Tallmadge Doyle, Heather Jacks, Hart James, Erik Sandgren, Craig Spilman, and Betsy Wolfston. Their works range from small to large and include oils and watercolors, graphite drawings and prints, as well as multi-media pieces. Approaches to the subject matter vary: narrative or symbolic, leaning toward realism or abstraction, drawing from imagination or memory. Accordingly, each of these gifted artists showcases different aspects of water, this ever-changing but essential element, and each highlights some of the distinct ways in which we as human beings relate to it.
