Exhibition Details: The Wild and the Cultivated is a collective show and sale featuring the work of three artists across different mediums. With pottery by Sonia Lesage, jewellery by Busted Button, and paintings by Arabella Young, these artists explore the wild and cultivated world around us.
Sonia creates earthy, functional pottery with a soft, west coast-inspired palette. Her simple forms and quiet designs reflect the subtle textures and rhythms of nature. Dot, of Busted Button, makes unique jewellery using dried flowers and playful elements that celebrate local landscapes and gardens. Arabella paints both the wild beauty of Vancouver and Vancouver Island, and florals cultivated from her own garden.
Come visit this unique collaboration and experience the latest work by these three artists.
Participants: Arabella Young, Sonia Lesage, & Dot Murray
