Judith HoytARTIST'S STATEMENTMy collages are about old material used to create new work depicted in scraps of paper, fabric, and found metal. I rescue metal from alongside the road, pages from old books, and discarded fabrics from another time. This material is discolored, corroded and misshapen by the random process of history- a history that gets passed on to the figures. Each piece evolves through trial and error, the shapes and colors of the materials guiding the development.VELVET DA VINCI SHOWS100 Brooches -- Brooches by U.S. and international artists based on the book, 500 Brooches COUNTRY OF RESIDENCEUSA EDUCATIONBFA State University of New York at New Paltz, Printmaking, 1980 SELECTED EXHIBITIONSSELECTED SOLO EXHIBITIONS Garrison Art Center, Garrison, NY, 2010 The Be Gallery, High Falls, NY, 2008 The Works Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, 2008 No Space Gallery, Rosendale, NY 2007 The Signature Shop Gallery, Atlanta, GA, 2006 The be Gallery, High Falls, NY, 2006 The Works Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, 2005 The Signature Shop Gallery, Atlanta, GA, 2004 The Works Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, 2003 The Gallery at R&F, Kingston, NY, 2002 Carrie Haddad Gallery, Hudson, NY, 2001 Lorraine Kessler Gallery, Poughkeepsie, NY, 2001 Catskill Mt.
