Quiet Decency with Dixon Rye

Dixon Rye in Atlanta shares a peak into their creative process each Sunday through and email they’ve termed “Quiet Decency”. To me it’s a moment to yourself, away from the distractions that bind. A moment to reflect on what ignites us from within, with reverence for which we are equally humbled to the core. When they asked if I’be a guest curator sharing visual inspiration from my point of view well, duh… I said “of course!”. Thank you Bradley Odom and your team for being such gracious hosts to me and my work. Love always.

So, here it is complete with sourcing because I believe in community over competition. I believe strongly in giving credit where credit is due. If you see that I’ve left something off or if you could contribute to the sources shared, I’d be thrilled to add to the list. Just email me at ashley(at)ashleyfinnemore.com and I’ll be sure to update the post if you have anything to add.

AATG with Sean Anderson

 
 

Antiques in the Gardens at Birmingham Botanical Gardens with Sean Anderson Design.

Sean, one of four taste makers, designed a space for the event. His space featured upholstery pieces designed by Sean, carefully curated antiques and accessories sourced from around the country as well as the fine craftsman ship and the uber talent of Grant Trick, a stunning large scale plaster piece in white which stood boldly in contrast to the dark walls of the space making a beautiful impact on the space by McKenzie Dove, and 48” x 84" “Running in the Shadows” by Ashley Finnemore layered among the texture of worn leather, movement of burled wood, and reflected the light bouncing so delicately. Working with professionals who leave room for creatives to expand their thought process, giving us a platform to broaden our reach, isn’t something I think any of us take for granted. Sean it is always a pleasure and if you could bare witness to the synergy of his team, you’d know how lucky I feel to be a small part.
