A jester, fool or joker was a member of the household of a nobleman or a monarch employed to amuse and entertain guests. Several years ago I was a guest visiting artist friend @lesliemorganart and getting my hands dirty at her custom built studio (with all the space, tools, bells and whistles an artist could wish for) set among the towering redwoods on Bonny Doon mountain. Leslie at that time was an artist in residence in the Santa Cruz Recycled Art Program and had collected a bunch of random rusty bits from the SC dump to create assemblage works for a residency show. A bucket full of bits that she didn't plan on using had been set aside for my rummaging and I pulled out several items that caught my eye. I also found, in an abandoned goat shed, old weathered planks from a fence post that had a nice patina and interesting, geometric cuts. And of course I was carrying on me a bisque doll head, because....well you just never know when you might need one. On a misty afternoon in the woods, I put them all together and voila, a jester was born. Leslie's birthday was this past Monday so I want to send out belated birthday wishes and thank her again for all her generous hospitality back in those Bonny Doon days.

I am so excited to hang my new solo show this week at @umagalleryoakland. Be sure to give this new gallery a follow and spread the word that there's an awesome new art space in Oakland!!! They have been a pleasure to work with and wrote an impressive press release for the show: UMA Gallery is pleased to present “ANATOMICALLY INCORRECT”, a solo exhibition of mixed‐media assemblages by San Francisco based artist Dianne Hoffman. Using found objects and recycled materials, Hoffman creates intimately scaled, three‐dimensional tableaux that give new life and meaning to discarded items. Further embellished with collage and other traditional media, each assemblage tells a story that reflects the artist’s curiosity, compassion, and sense of humor. Hoffman’s work is characterized by muted and earthy colors, creating whispers of nostalgia from these artifacts left over from another time. ANATOMICALLY INCORRECT is UMA Gallery’s first solo‐artist exhibition in the repurposed embalming studio of the Mosswood Chapel, a former mortuary located at 3630 Telegraph Ave, in the Lower Temescal district of Oakland CA. UMA Gallery is also the producer of Unkle Morty’s Pop‐Ups, a monthly market of independent arts & crafts vendors held on the First Saturday of each month in the same location. Unkle Morty is a co‐creation of Donna Davis and John Warner. Exhibition Dates / Times Exhibition Dates: September 4 – September 29, 2021. Artist Reception: Friday, September 17, 5:00 – 7:00pm. Location Mosswood Chapel, 3630 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland CA 94609 #umagallery #oaklandgallery #oaklandartevent #oaklandart #assemblageart #assemblageartists #diannehoffmanart #assemblageexhibition #artshow #artexhibition #artexhibit #darkart #foundobjectart #recycledobjects #foundobjects #Eastbay #anatomicallyincorrect #honoringanimalsinart #embalmingroom #mosswoodchapel #savethedate (at Oakland, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTLLBCjB5cF/?utm_medium=tumblr
