Linda Filley: In These Shoes
March 2 – April 4, 2024

Opening Reception: March 3, 2024, 4:00 – 6:00 p.m.

Linda Filley has been making her paper creations for over 15 years. They grew out of display work she was doing for a store in the Hudson Valley. Like the signature Paper Dresses she created for the store’s front window, the Shoes are a transformation of everyday materials. Cardboard, brown paper, wallpaper, old maps, and sheet music, sometimes new and sometimes vintage. Her work speaks to many themes: recycling, history, and nature with an eye to fashion and whimsy. A self-taught artist who was born in Glasgow, Scotland and grew up in Montreal, Canada, Linda currently lives in the Hudson Valley.

Please join us for a reception for the artist on Sunday, March 3, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., graciously hosted by the Library Associates. Thank you for your support!
