 n opening on First Friday\, August 3\, from 5 to 8 PM. The Gallery Opening
  is free and open to all\, with works available for purchase.\n\n‘Earth & 
 Life: Discussions’ is a culmination of eight years of discussions between 
 Katrina Ruhmland and Gail Trenfield\, two artists and friends about their 
 vastly different approaches to art. Katrina a mixed media weaver and Gail 
 a painter have found surprising common ground in their work and are excite
 d to share it with the Missoula community. \n\nKatrina works with fiber – 
 finding it in natural places\, cleaning\, carding\, spinning\, dying\, and
  finally\, weaving. The work takes time and patience. It is direct and tac
 tile. She starts with an idea\, an emotion\, and stays open to allowing th
 e work to have voice in the process – bringing together history\, backgrou
 nd\, location\, ideas\, the nature of the materials and process into the f
 inal work. Each piece is rich with the stories that brought it into being.
 \n\nGail’s work with oil\, pastel and watercolor is more immediate – often
  starting as plein air work\, coming out of deep appreciation of what is s
 imply before her\, and working to bring it to life again in a new form. Th
 e light she chases is ephemeral\, but the result of that chase is a solid\
 , more permanent object ... a memorial of a few passing moments.\n\nABOUT 
 THE SHOW \nIn their own words\, 'We have a shared studio space and are lea
 rning from each other's ideas and processes. Our discussions continue and 
 deepen. What we have found in common is reverence for humanity’s time on t
 his beautiful earth – for all the stories and all the moments that have br
 ought us to the brink of destroying that world. We hope to evoke discussio
 ns from our viewers\, with the possibilities of shared solutions\, moving 
 from grief to hope. This show will include new works by both of us – inclu
 ding weavings\, beadwork\, oils\, pastels\, drawings\, watercolors\, and m
 ixed media sculptures. The examples of the work that we are sharing are ab
 out humanity and the relationships with the land we use to survive. We int
 end to expose the plight we see and create a call to action.'
