Beginning May 28 and continuing through Sept 6 the North Carolina Arboretum in Asheville presents Botanical Chords and The Fine Art of Wood, two new exhibits at the NC Arboretum.Botanical Chords by Terry Ashley blurs the line between science and art. A former research scientist at Yale University School of Medicine, Ashley developed her technique while pursuing her hobby of photographing plant parts under the light microscope. Ashley termed her art “chords” because they connect two separate images, one traditional plant photograph and one image taken at a cellular level.
The Fine Art of Wood: An International Invitational Exhibition of Woodturning will feature the work of more than 40 artists from across the country and around the world. The exhibit will showcase a wide variety of style and presentation, from pedestal and tabletop pieces to wall hangings.
The North Carolina Arboretum offers Magnificent gardens and miles of woodland trails, plus year around special events and touring shows. Experience nature in an intimate environment and connect with plants that are as diverse and rich as the land itself. Whether you enjoy strolling through gardens, exploring exhibits, enriching your mind or hiking and biking, the Arboretum offers activities for all ages. The Nc Arboretum is located at 100 Frederick Law Olmsted Way in Asheville, North Carolina.
