ArtUp presents Land Marks

MARGARETVILLE — Robin Factor and Mary McFerran have come to a deep appreciation of the Catskills and as artists, have found ways to interpret landscape through their art, each in their distinctive way. Multidimensional pieces, earthy color palettes, and found materials weave a contemporary vision of the beauty and fragility of planet earth. 

Factor explores interior and exterior landscapes, and the uneasy duality between viewing and memory to form fragments of our own internal landscape. These deconstructed landscapes are her way of creating a conversation between formal elements as they respond and react to each other, and between the viewer and the piece as they explore their own landscape point of view.

McFerran gathers plants and rocks from her home landscape and creates eco dyes on repurposed fabric. She also prints with rusted objects and assembles sculptural combinations with the elements. The works are often bound together with twine in order to connect them physically and symbolically. Culled directly from earth’s bounty, these forms remind us of our interdependence with the environment.
