Grain and Grace Exhibit by Artist Crystal Barley at These 4 Walls
2026-01-31 11:00 - 19:00 | these 4 walls gallery, 22 Front St, Trenton, Ontario, K8V 6C5, Canada
Join us for a creative & interesting exhibit by wood artist Crystal Barley. Exhibit opening Sunday, Jan 4 from 1-4 pm. This is a free event.
Crystal’s practice is grounded in patience, process, and a deep respect for material. Working with both reclaimed and new wood, she combines scroll saw and mosaic techniques with natural and found elements—moss, lake stones, and gathered textures—to create framed works that feel both modern and quietly timeless.
Each piece carries the subtle history of its materials, celebrating imperfection, grain, and the beauty found in what is weathered, worn, or overlooked. These are works meant to be experienced slowly—inviting reflection, connection, and a sense of calm.
Artfully organic, thoughtfully modern, this exhibition offers a gentle invitation to pause and appreciate the stories held within wood, surface, and form.
All are welcome to attend this free opening reception and meet the artist.
