Tabby Ivy is a tonalist painter working in the Flathead Valley. Damon Falke lives in northern Norway and writes prose and poetry that considers relationships between memory and the present, particularly as they are expressed through objects and landscapes. Tabby and Damon first connected on social media shortly before the pandemic and soon discovered “a common voice that spoke to us through our work”. In this collaborative exhibit, Ivy Falk uniquely express stories and emotions through both visual arts and the written word transcending distance, culture and time.
