Forest Bathing: Solo Exhibit by Ann Marie Patrick

The Niagara Pumphouse Arts Centre is pleased to present Forest Bathing: A Solo Exhibition by Ann Marie Patrick, on view from September 3 to 29, 2025 in the Joyner Gallery. Forest Bathing is a unique textile and fabric-based collection, showcasing the artist’s innovative approach to fibre arts. An opening reception with the artist will be held on Sunday, September 7, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, with remarks at 2:30 pm.

The solo exhibit Forest Bathing by Ann Marie Patrick invites viewers into a serene exploration of nature through textile art. Inspired by her mother's legacy and nurtured through international mentorship, Ann Marie's work reflects a deep appreciation for the restorative power of nature amidst today's hectic world. Drawing from the concept of forest bathing—an Eastern practice that emphasizes the healing effects of immersing oneself in natural surroundings—her pieces evoke calm, strength, and a rooted connection to the earth. The exhibit features a diverse array of trees, from familiar to exotic, each crafted to create a tranquil "island of calm" for urban dwellers seeking reflection and peace within their everyday lives.
