Water | Vapor installation view, SOK Gallery, Laramie, WY 2023

SΘK Gallery presented Water | Vapor for the Laramie Public Art Walk in April 2023. The Pop Up is an ongoing annual event that pairs businesses with artists for a weekend celebration of the arts in Laramie, turning downtown into an extended gallery district.

Water | Vapor was an exhibition of new work by Wendy Lemen Bredehoft and Susan Moldenhauer. Bredehoft’s work was drawn from her sketches made in the Caribbean which were transformed into Strappos and then Jacquard tapestries that she embellishes with hand-stitching.  Moldenhauer presented new photographs from her series, Since then, that continues her exploration of the emotive power of clouds as she reflects on her time of life, American history in the making, and the greater issues of climate change, war, the pandemic, and the state of the United States.
