Join us for the artist reception for “The Art of Kathryn Ikle” on Friday, February 9th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM. The show is on exhibition from January 19th through February 29th during business hours, Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Kathryn Iklé is a Dallas, TX creative and versatile artist. While she enjoys acrylic painting, charcoal, and printmaking, she is not defined by one medium and is passionate about all forms of art.
One of the defining features of Kathryn’s art is the way she captures the light and airiness inherent in lace textiles. Her art often seems to breathe with a sense of lightness, evoking the ethereal qualities of lace. Pattern and design are at the heart of lace textiles, and Kathryn pays homage to this aspect by incorporating intricate patterns into her own creations. She may draw inspiration from traditional lace motifs or reinvent them in a contemporary context.
Kathryn’s art serves as a bridge between the past and the present. She connects with her ancestors and honors the family business by infusing her work with the passion and artistry that have been handed down through the generations. In doing so, she ensures that the legacy of the Ikle family’s lace craftsmanship lives on in a contemporary and relevant way.
