PAULA REBSOM HOSTED AT TILT GALLERY & PROJECT SPACE

Tuesday, 26 September 2006 08:59

Portland, OR - Tilt Gallery and Project Space is pleased to present the new work of Paula Rebsom.  Haunting and nostalgic, Rebsom's images stem from a sculptural practice, resulting in a romanticized relationship with nature and the "wild" that is unattainable.  When I can’t be here, I go there., is one small attempt to explore the many relationships that we form with ourselves and the environments in which we choose to settle and our attempts to connect and thrive within them.

Rebsom’s work will be on exhibit October 5-28, 2006 at Tilt Gallery and Project Space, 625 NW Everett, Suite 106, Portland, Oregon.  A reception for the artist will be held on Thursday October 5 from 6-9pm.  Regular gallery hours are Fridays and Saturdays noon-5pm and by appointment.

Paula Rebsom received her MFA from the University of Oregon in 2006.  She is the recipient of the prestigious Jan Zach Memorial Award in Sculpture.  Her work has been shown locally at Blackfish Gallery and at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art in Eugene, Oregon. Rebsom currently works in the Sculpture Department at Michael Curry Design.
