PATTERN PLAY PAINTER AND PRINTMAKER DOROTHY STITES ALIGâS ART BRINGS A SERIES OF DOTS AND PATTERNS TO LIFE, CREATING SUBTLE FORM TO NATURE-INSPIRED ABSTRACT PIECES. ALIGâS EXHIBIT, THE ANTHROPAUSE, RUNS THROUGH NOVEMBER 30 AT VIVID ART GALLERY IN WINNETKA. BY MOLLY GEORGE THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND
Indianapolis artist Dorothy Stites Aligâs latest exhibit, The Anthropause, takes large inspiration from the simple small joys found in natureâhappenings and observations that unless youâve taken a moment to pause, you may not otherwise notice. Her abstract art is a combination of painting and custom silkscreen printed patterns. The name of her exhibit is a word recently coined and brought into the American lexicon: âanthropauseâ is used to describe the slow-down and pause across the world as a result of a global decrease of human activity, particularly travel, that came about due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Aligâs abstract paintings in this exhibitâwhich runs through November 30 at Vivid Art Gallery in Winnetkaâ feature subtle references to wildlife through silhouettes and subtle figures hidden throughout her landscapes, as well as motifs inspired by the day-to-day happenings in nature that we wouldnât usually detect. Because of the anthropause, Alig did take notice and is now ready to share her viewpoints with a wider audience. Continued on PG 10
