Current Exhibition
Natori Green: Green Views
Exhibition Dates: July 11 – August 2, 2026
Opening reception: Saturday, July 11, 6-9pm
Gallery Hours: Saturday and Sundays, 12-5pm
In Green Views, Natori Green examines the relationship between landscape, perception, and memory through oil paintings and naturally dyed textile works.
The exhibition also includes ceramic works and a painting by the artist’s daughter. These works add a parallel thread of material exploration and color. The exhibition considers how images and identities are shaped through processes of reflection, accumulation, and change. Green draws on botanical materials and reflective surfaces. The work shows how people and environments continually shape one another. Taking its title from both the artist's surname and the act of looking, Green Views brings together painting, natural dye, and textile practices. It creates a space where seeing becomes an encounter rather than an observation. The exhibition invites viewers to consider their place within the ecological and material worlds they inhabit.
The opening reception for the Green Views exhibition at Staple Goods will feature a live performance by New Orleans–based hip-hop artists D.T. (Demond Taylor) and Say Dez (Desmond Taylor II), a U.S. Army veteran, whose music has been an important source of inspiration for her artistic practice.
An artist talk will be held on Sunday, August 2 at 2:00 PM.
Natori Green (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist working across visual art, performance, and design. Her practice examines transformation, ecology, and cultural memory through materially engaged work that moves between visual art, performance, and fashion-based contexts. Green holds an A.A. in Visual Communications/Graphic Design from Delgado Community College.
