New Work & Events
Frederika Roeder's painting, The Pond at Descanso, will appear as part of the Shape + Form Exhibition at Descanso Gardens
October 28, 2023 through January 28, 2024.
Approximately 200 works were juried into the exhibition, which will be hosted by the The Sturt Haaga Gallery at Descanso.
Also included are exhibitions by artists Kaz Kitajima and Luna Ikuta.
Kaz Kitajima's exhibition celebrates more than 50 years in landscape design as well as his work as a Sogetsu ikebana master.
Luna Ikuta, a conceptual artist and designer whose work draws from biology, craftsmanship, and material research, will showcase transparent botanicals that are preserved within antique decanters and custom blown-glass vessels, setting a surreal, laboratory-like ambiance.
Inspired by Mulberry Pond, a cool and shady spot tucked away inside Descanso gardens,
The Pond at Descanso, is about a specific outdoor space at a specific time and place, whereby form becomes very important.
Inherently, there is form in the leaves, the tree trunks, the shape of the pond and rocks
at the pond’s edge - as well as the the foliage and creatures that inhabit the ponds, and even the scraps of paper memorabilia floating on the surface.
Shape and form are two of the basic elements of art. Using creativity, an artist can transform simple shapes and forms into a profound work of art.

Descanso Gardens and
the Eastern Sierra Mountains hold important narratives in my life.
Descanso is local
and near to where I grew up.
It still maintains a draw with its wildness,
ponds, and camellia groves.
The Eastern Sierra is the beloved, majestic,
thrilling, panoramic backdrop en route to Mammoth, where the narrative
of my life continues to play out.
