Introducing
Tea in the Tempest
A collaborative art exhibit
by Heather Divoky & Emelie Weber Wade

Pink Dog Creative Gallery presents Tea in the Tempest, a collaborative exhibition by mixed media artist Heather Divoky and textile artist Emelie Weber Wade. Originally conceived as Tea Time for Two, a show celebrating creative friendship, the exhibition evolved in the wake of Hurricane Helene, reflecting themes of destruction, resilience, and renewal.

Divoky’s signature paper head crowns, intricate hand-drawn works, and a kinetic mobile installation explore the emotional landscape of loss and recovery. Wade’s woven inlay wall art and non-traditional quilts transform dreamlike imagery into textile narratives of home and healing. Three collaborative installations—a fiber blanket, a life-sized tree, and an interactive house—offer a powerful meditation on change and community resilience.

Join us for the opening reception on May 9 to experience how art transforms trauma into a shared journey of renewal.

Emelie's studio is located in the River Arts District at Pink Dog Creative, Suite 101, 344 Depot St., Asheville, NC.
