 \n\n*Patty Hudak: Biography *\n\nPatty Hudak is an artist living in Underh
 ill VT\, whose work embodies \nphilosophy and processes linked to Ireland\
 , China\, and Japan. While living in \nChina\, her work evolved to include
  theories of ink painting and process and \ncontains influences by the mys
 tical Irish poet\, WB Yeats. In Japan\, she \nstudied traditional woodbloc
 k printing and carving\, which she is using for \nboth print and installat
 ion work. She is a member of 3 global art \ncollectives: Art Byte Critique
 \, the Mokuhanga Sisters Print Collective\, and \nSolve Studio. \n\nHudak 
 addresses concepts of isolation in Nature\, amidst the surrounding \nturmo
 il. She applies color and forms in organic patterns and marks history \nwi
 th the penetration of the color into the fibers of the surface. This \nact
 ion symbolizes Nature as a system of porous materials. The pressure of \nh
 er hand is a real-time response to the current emotional climate\; \nshe t
 ransforms these emotions into tangible forms. Memories of walking in \nNat
 ure are channeled into the structures of the line and pattern.\n\nSince 20
 15\, Hudak has created large-scale installations for the public in \nnon-p
 rofit spaces. These include the 2018-2019 Vermont Creation Grant \nproject
 \, 'There\, Through the Broken Branches\, Go'\, exhibited in 2020 at the 
 \nSouthern Vermont Arts Center in Manchester\, VT. Other large-scale \nins
 tallation projects include 'Sailing to Byzantium' at Dublin Castle in \nIr
 eland\, and 'Botanical Ornaments' at the TW Wood Gallery in Montpelier\, V
 T.\n\nIn 2018-2019\, Hudak collaborated in two Irish Eco-Residencies. In J
 une 2018\, \nshe traveled to Baby Forest\, a digital Artist Collective in 
 West Cork\, where \nshe explored perceptual drawing in a newly established
  beech forest. In July \n2018 and 2019\, she traveled to Walking Birds’ Mo
 untain\, to collaborate \nwith 14 artists and writers to produce an instal
 lation responding to \nfolklore\, archeology\, and the natural environment
  in the Ballygawley \nMountains in Sligo County. This residency will conti
 nue\, culminating in a \ndocumentational exhibition.\n\nIn 2016\, 2017\, a
 nd 2019 Hudak was Artist in Residence at Mokuhanga \nInnovation Laboratory
  in Yamanashi\, Japan\, where she studied traditional \nwoodblock printing
  with Japanese Masters Printers and Carvers\, as well as \nprivate study w
 ith Carving Master\, Motoharu Asaka. She was honored to serve \nas a juror
  for the 2017 College Women’s Association of Japan 61st Print \nShow and s
 erved as Art Manager for the 2016 College Women’s Association \nExhibition
  Intimate Dimensions. She has been a guest lecturer at the Irish \nEmbassy
 \, Beijing\; the US Embassy Beijing American Center (2013)\, and Beijing 
 \nNormal University (2012)\, and served as Artist in Residence at Harrow 
 \nInternational School Beijing (2014-2015). She was awarded the Being 3 Ga
 llery \nGeography Projects Award in 2015 for her installation\, Sailing to
  Byzantium. \nIn addition to practicing art\, she has curated group exhibi
 tions at the \nSouthern Vermont Art Center\, Nishimachi Art Space in Tokyo
