Erika Kuryla – Woven Waters, Recent Works
Artist Statement: Being born in Haverford, PA, and living across the street
from an Art Center was my first introduction to art at 4 years old. Teaching
art on cruise ships awakened me to new and different places and the art
treasures of the areas I visited. Now living in Upstate NY I am, each and
every day, inspired by the beauty of nature and the art at various galleries
August Gallery Shows & Locations etc. I am a multi- media artist and for years have been doing art work on
glass with hand made and hand painted papers.

The Spirit of Tompkins exhibit is a collection of stories,
portraits and videos of people and their places that highlight Barbara Mink-Recent Works
our diverse population, and their relationships with multiple
environments to foster a strong sense of community. “Our The Mink Gallery at 614 North Cayuga welcomes you! A nice walk from the
mission is to capture and celebrate the Spirit of Tompkins Commons, or plenty of parking across the street!
County – highlighting our rich culture of people and the places
that are meaningful to them.”
Portraits by local photographer Robyn Wishna are portraits of
people, individually or as groups, in their homes, work, farms,
or other meaningful places. Participants chose their own place
to be photographed and each participant was asked to provide
a short explanation of why they chose that place. Their words
are used alongside their portraits to help tell their stories.
The project is a collaboration of The Discovery Trail, the Town
of Ithaca (celebrating its bicentennial in 2021) and Photog-
rapher/project director Robyn Wishna. Spiritoftompkins.org
Funding was received from Humanities New York.
The Community Arts Partnership thanks our generous year-round CAP
ArtSpace sponsor, the Tompkins Trust Company.
