“Jungle,” an exhibit on display through Aug. 16 at the Adams Square Mini Park, is made of lightweight textiles and yarn hung from the ceiling. The piece creates a jungle-like environment within the gas station resulting in a colorful and dynamic view from all four sides. The work of Annli Tico spans multiple mediums and focuses largely on location, taking special interest in the expansiveness and intricate details of the natural world. Using pattern, repetition and abstraction of shape, she attempts to create work that captures the broadness of nature in a way that is playful and inviting to viewers. Tico often uses textiles and found materials to capture nature’s softness, fluidity, color and vibrancy.
