Portland International Airport has
unveiled two art exhibits to delight
travelers and celebrate Northwest
creativity.
In “Art from Nature,” artists
Lenny Wilson, Maria T. Jacobs,
Anne Scott and Emilie Lapham use
innovation and meticulous skill to
create everyday objects from natu­
ral plant materials. Under an artist’s
hand, glamorous high heels take
shape from a pile of acorns and
leaves. Seeds and petals become a
tiara. The exhibit is located on Con­
course A through Sept. 15.
Artists Tiffany Ludwig and Renee
Piechocki created “Trappings: Por­
traits” after interviewing more than
600 women in 15 states, asking them
to respond to the question, “What
do you wear that makes you feel
powerful?” The exhibit, located at
the e n tran ce to C o n co u rse E
through Sept. 30, allows participants
and viewers to investigate their own
relationship to power and assump­
tions based on appearance and im­
age.
“Our art program is designed to
provide a portal into the dynamic
cultural life of our region,” said Greta
Blalock, Port of Portland’s PDX art
and entertainm ent coordinator.
“Through ongoing relationships
Fashions that make women
feel powerful is the theme
behind an art exhibit by Tiffany
Ludwig and Renee Piechocki at
the entrance to Concourse E at
the Portland International
Airport.
with regional artists, arts organiza­
tions, museums and educational
institutions, PDX is providing a
showcase for Northwest expres­
sion.”
