Alberta Craft Gallery - Calgary 280-1721 29 Avenue SW (cSPACE), Calgary, Alberta T2T 6T7
Natalie Gerber & Kalika Bowlby, "Set the Table," 2018
When we set the table and prepare a meal for ourselves or others it is an act of nourishment and has the potential to nourish us on many levels-physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. A meal can be an art, a meditation, a celebration.
The exhibition "Set the Table" features tableware by Kalika Bowlby and table linens by Natalie Gerber celebrating the act of setting the table and enjoying a meal. The exhibition will include both formal and casual table settings as well as larger serving dishes.
Kalika Bowlby is a ceramic artist based in Golden, BC focused on simplicity and functionality; Natalie Gerber is a Calgary based textile artist exploring screen printed pattern. The combination of their work creates modern tablescapes that remind us to set the table and take the time to celebrate the simple, beautiful moments of every day.
