"Entwined” marks The Woodlands Arts Council’s first exhibition featuring a married couple. Bob Mosier and Karen Fearon, partners for 32 years and former educators at The John Cooper School, now devote their time to individual artistic practices rooted in a shared creative dialogue.
Bob’s foundation in sculpture informs his intricate thread paintings, composed through both machine and hand stitching and often incorporating miles of thread. What begins as two-dimensional drawings evolves into complex geometric compositions that blur perception and expand into increasingly sculptural, three-dimensional forms.
Karen’s practice spans expressive drawings and paintings, driven by intuitive, spontaneous mark-making, as well as illustrative works and dimensional assemblages. Her process channels subconscious energy, giving each piece a sense of immediacy and emotional depth.
“Entwined presents a dynamic conversation between two artists whose individual practices evolved into a shared creative language,” shares curator Annette Palmer. “Their work explores light, form, and value; the yin and yang of the creative process.”
Both artists incorporate found, discarded, and reclaimed materials, imbuing their sculptural and assemblage works with new life and meaning. Beyond the visual arts, Mosier and Fearon are accomplished dulcimer musicians, extending their creative dialogue into sound.
Entwined invites the community to visit its gallery and immerse into a rich dialogue of texture, transformation, and artistic partnership. Through exhibitions like this, TWAC continues its mission of fostering meaningful connections through the arts.
