Northport, NY– Haven Gallery is pleased to present “Quaintrelle”, a collection of new work from Larysa Bernhardt and the artist’s second solo exhibition at the gallery. “Quaintrelle” will include ten hand sewn moth sculptures crafted by the artist with hand dyed fabrics, vintage textiles and hand embroidered details harking back to the aesthetics and fashions of the Victorian era. As such with the title, this new collection of moths is a culmination of the artists passion dedicated to her own artistry and developed style devoted to making her insect effigies. The art of making something by hand is a nod to the past, before machines and technologies usurped the delicate and fine handwork of artisans and craftsman whose precise and integrity-based handiwork pervaded all forms of creation.
