patricia udell onna house hamptons show

Patricia Udell, an artist known for modernist works in clay, plaster, wood, and canvas, is unveiling her first tapestry at Onna House in East Hampton in a show titled “My Life Has Been a Tapestry,” opening tomorrow and running through Sept. 1. The exhibition takes its name from the 1971 Carole King song. Udell, who has exhibited at Meislin Projects, Quogue Gallery, and amArtHouse, discusses her move into textiles, her inspirations from Calder and Matisse, and the solitary, intuitive nature of her practice. Onna House, founded by designer Lisa Perry, focuses on women artists, making it a fitting venue for Udell’s work.
