ABOUT THE ARTWORK
BIOLUMINESCENCE This series is a collection of moods, moments, themes, and images that emerge from the story that is my earliest memory: Reaching back as far as I can, I find a memory of my Pop and I in a skiff that he built and called the Whisper. I loved that boat the way a child loves a family pet. We were deep in a star-thick night, skimming over the mirror flat bay of our home—a small, coastal town guarded by the massive bulk of Morro Rock. I was around two years old. That night, we were one of many skiffs in a darting squadron of revelers. Voices, laughter, and outbursts of song echoed and bounced around me. The grown-ups were always goofing off, and here their goofing was at its best. There was a vitality to them when they were outdoors, with strength and skill they wielded the oars, controlled the boats—most of which they had built themselves. Our frictionless speed filled me with an exhilarating courage, a particular state of being that I still chase to this day. The vast dome of shining stars and the mystery of the endless waters had me wondering at the hugeness laid out before tiny me. The sheer scale of it all lulled me into a pleasant disorientation.

Counsel Langley
United States
Counsel Langley grew up among shipwrights and foundry workers—people with strong traditional skills and respect for materials. Their influence played a large part in her choice to study metalsmithing at Massachusetts College of Art (earned her Bachelor’s of Fine Art, 1999). The rigor of metalwork honed Langley’s discipline, steady hand, attention for detail, and love for surface treatment (rough, smooth, matte, shiny, sparkly, natural, mechanical etc). Her work remains rooted in a metalsmith’s approach to making art. Langley’s mixed media pieces have been widely exhibited; venues include the Museum of Northwest Art, Roq La Rue, International Gallery of Contemporary Art, PUB Gallery at Peninsula College, OGHE Ltd., and Bridge Productions, and was recently featured in a Microsoft Surface Launch Campaign. Her work is held by the Seattle City Light Portable Works Collection and ArtsWA Public Collection. Langley’s work has been featured in Seattle Magazine, City Arts Magazine, Meat For Tea: The Valley Review, Trickhouse, Beautiful/Decay blog. Her love for cross-discipline collaborations sparked opportunities to work with literary publications Filter Literary Journal, Poetry Northwest Magazine, the creation of album art, scenic design, and illustration.
