I have been looking forward to hanging a show here for a year. What wonderful timing. I have a new studio recently, and have closed my gallery. Every piece I've sent to you in Memphis is at my cost alone, and it feels just terrific because WingsGallery and its many "sisters" around the world are my hearts desire in the art world. This is where metaphor means the most. Meaning in image and word really work. Sometimes the bridge is immediate, sometimes much later in a different way. However metaphor works in all our lives to mend and make us whole.

"Juliet Wood's work is unapologetically about art as a means of spiritual journeying. Her pieces are meant to depict 'inner journeys of evolving consciousness.' She draws on a range of mythic traditions, referencing them in title or subject, and using those resonances to direct the viewer's contemplation of the piece."

"Wood calls her pieces 'constructs,' which is an apt word to describe them. She works in a range of media, and her pieces may be sculpted, sewn, painted, printed or collaged. Her work, particularly her paintings, often has a consciously handmade quality, as if to make a point of the manual birth of her work. Her pieces are all beautifully crafted objects."  Alicia Miller, Artweek, February 1998
