This exhibition is SHARON ETGAR's third solo show at Davis & Langdale Company, and will consist of about thirty eight works dating from 2011 until 2014, including collages and thread drawings on paper, as well as two handmade thread and wood sculptures.

Also on view will be two books from the collection of the artist: a sketchbook containing collages, drawings and paintings, and a leather bound “sewing book” of 102 pages. Not originally intended for exhibition, this is the first time they will be seen.
