PIERS by CAITLIN CARY
On display November 11, 2020 - January 4, 2021
Since 2013, Caitlin Cary has been working in a medium for which she coined the term “Needle Print,” a form of fabric collage in which cloth is affixed by machine stitch to paper or other rigid backing. The works in her upcoming show, tentatively titled “PIERS” will focus on the patterns and spatial complexity
of the undergirdings of buldings, bridges, docks, dams.
In 2015, Cary was awarded the Regional Emerging Artist residency at Artspace in Raleigh, and maintains a studio/gallery there now. Her work has been exhibited at The Miriam Block Gallery, the Frankie G. Weems Gallery at Meredith College, The Raleigh Fine Arts Exhibition, The Cameron Village Regional Library, The Wilkesboro Art Gallery and others, and her work is prized by regional and national collectors. Cary is represented by the Yard Dog Gallery in Austin, TX, the At Home Gallery in Greensboro, and she available for commissioned works by appointment.

History of the Gallery
The Welborn Gallery was named after Marion and Jewell Welborn of Boonville for the generous lead gift they made to the Center’s capital campaign. The Welborns gifted the final funds needed to close the campaign and make possible the opening of the center.
