Silence & Song, by Seattle-based artist Wendy Thon is a new collection of acrylic paintings, which springs from the Japanese concept of Forest Bathing; a practice of mindful time spent in nature paying attention to the sights, sounds, smells of nature as a peaceful antidote to the stress of modern life and inspiration for forest stewardship.
Thon’s work expands these ideas through a broad spectrum of intimate encounters, taking the viewer on a journey from the Hoh rainforest to stands of cedars in Seattle parks; Hawaiian beaches to red rock deserts; backyard gardens to deep dives in small ponds. The work is personal yet universal, charged with emotional energy through her varied palette and the combination of the real and the imagined.
