Semi-Annual Trunk Show


LOUIS POHL GALLERY, FIRST FRIDAY
June 3rd, 2011, 5 TO 9:00 P.M.
1142 Bethel Street
Fashion Preview, Thursday, June 2nd

For her semi-annual Hawaii trunk show, Terry Nokell’s kimono jackets will be washed-silk Italian suiting, embellished with glass beads from Ghana and the Czech Republic and hand-dyed batiks from Thailand. Her 2011 Gypsy skirts are created from exuberant bands of colors and prints, where you will often find a remnant from a New York designer nestled in with “neighbors” from Los Angeles and India.

Earlier this year Terry spent days combing the trim and fabric stores of Los Angeles’ garment district for specialty pieces, now incorporated in her latest designs. The imported linens take on a new flow with hand-sculpted pintucks in free-form designs. Layers of natural cottons take on dimension and texture through hand-made chenille and quilting techniques. Light and shadow play in the folds and tucks of her hand-sculpted chandelier skirts.

She will be showing a totally new line of amazing jewelry designs that include horn, bone, stone and earthenware. Her miniature fired earthenware art masks, dressed in beads and bangles, are specially crafted to wear as a pendant or brooch.

Just for fun, she has created colorful ceramic discs that hang from adjustable neck cords, becoming safe resting places for sunglasses and readers. She will also return with her handcrafted shawl pins and sweater hooks, adorned with pendants and beads. Look for Tibetan inlaid jade, vintage African trade beads, carved bone, rich Turquoise, and amber-tone agates.

Terry Nokell, THE LOGGER’S DAUGHTER, grew up in Seabeck, Washington, at her father’s saw mill and logging business. She was hand sewing at age five and constructing clothing by the time she was eleven. With her father, she designed and built her own house among the evergreen trees. Then they built a house for her kiln. For the past 20 years she has designed and created one-of-a-kind garments, fired the earthenware buttons for those garments and crafted hammered silver and bead jewelry to accompany her custom designed fashions. Her work can be found in shops throughout the Pacific Northwest and at Silver Moon Emporium in Haleiwa, and at her semi-annual Trunk Shows at the Louis Pohl Gallery on Bethel Street in downtown Honolulu, plus presentations for the Hawaii Stitchery & Fibre Arts Guild and the Hawaii Quilt Guild.
