Stop by littlefield for the WRAPT Opening art Reception by artist Sarah Olson.

From the site:

Sarah Olson’s drawing-installation, WRAPT, will consist of a single drawing that will span a significant portion of the wall at littlefield theater and effectively wrap around the room. The work will be inter-woven with recycled materials and wrapping we blithely use and discard to package what we consume. Olson’s drawing is a series of impossible landscapes harnessed together by a chain of unimaginable scenarios within the natural world. Trees that are at once bodies and other life forms are knitted together with simple black line and small and sudden bursts of color. The title is a play on the words: Rapt, Rapped and Wrapped as Olson refers to the rapture we are inclined towards when observing nature; the urban idiom of rap and other music often experienced at littlefield; and finally, the disposable wrapping we find in such great ubiquity in every aspect of our modern lives.
