Patty Corcoran's multimedia paintings and Mason Young's intimately-sized abstract wood sculptures share spaces very well together: her colors complement the tones of his wood carvings, and both evoke nature in their subjects and their use of materials. Long-time friends, this is their first-time collaboration.

Mason Young - Sinew - Cherry wood 

Mason Young has always been interested in making things. As a young boy, he made toy boats, stools, simple objects and sometimes imaginary things. As he grew older, he started making furniture but found it somewhat limiting. He became fascinated by mythology as an expression of the meeting of science and art and uses that interest to bring out the relationships in his sculptures. “Sculpture allows me to combine the use of hand and mind in directions that are not possible in normal objects. I love the process of working with wood because the wood and I work together to reach an agreement on its final form”. ​

Patty Corcoran - Dawn at Richmond Woods - Oil painting ​

Patty Corcoran landscape paintings are created using oil and acrylic paint, cold wax, and other mediums to create additional depth and texture. Inspired by the coastal landscape of Northeast Harbor, Maine and the beautiful trails of Hinesburg, Vermont; they commemorate and honor spirits of loved ones who have passed on. 

Shared Spaces - Patty Corcoran and Mason Young 
runs January 31 - March 24, 2023with a reception and artist talk on Friday, February 3rd, in association with Montpelier Alive Art Walk, from 4 PM to 8 PM.  ​
