GREEN A Juried Exhibition of NCWCA (Northern California Women’s Caucus for Art) Members and Invited Artists
Reception: Saturday, July 25, 7-9 PM
Jane’s multi-part installation “Different Worlds” is one of 37 works selected for inclusion in GREEN. This installation is suspended from the ceiling and uses Jane’s handmade kozo fiber paper, threads, horsehair, and acrylic paint and gel and was created after her residency in Japan and seeing maps of the world with Japan in the center and the USA very small and far off to the right. The mostly blue and green circles show the globe turned around with different views in the center and focus on how important green forests and grasslands are for life on earth.
Jane Ingram Allen, “Different Worlds”, 2000-2002, suspended installation of handmade kozo fiber paper, threads, horsehair, acrylic paint and gel, dimensions variable, 8 units each 12 – 36 inches diameter, included in “Green” exhibition at ARC Gallery, SF, July 17 – Aug. 22, 2026,
The exhibition explores the myriad expressions conjured by this single word GREEN—its colors, concepts, contradictions, and cultural weight. Jane was selected as an invited artist for this exhibition and is a member of NCWCA.
These images were all taken by a volunteer at the Festival and show some public participants working on making their own “house” for the installation and adding to the community public art installation in the back garden area at NY2CA Gallery, 617 First Street, Benicia, CA. The over 100 “houses” each about 4 x 4 x 6 inches were created using wire mesh joined with copper wires and then dipped into different colors of paper pulp made from cotton, abaca and recycled plant fibers. The wet “houses” were then decorated with various natural and recycled materials such as flower petals, leaves, bits of fabric, paper, thread and other found materials. The “houses” were placed in the public art installation to dry and picked up later by participants. The installation will remain on view (at least some of the houses that have not been picked up yet) until the close of Jane Ingram Allen’s exhibition “The Work of Earth and Hand”, ending June 21, 2026.

Japanese Hand Papermaking – Celebrating Kozo
Date: Saturday, March 21, 10 am to 4 pm
Class Fee: $200 (includes all materials and equipment)
Learn how to make paper with Japanese Kozo (paper mulberry bark) and other plant fibers using Japanese techniques that Jane learned in Mino City, Japan, during a 4-month artist-in-residency award. The Japanese methods can create unique handmade paper that is super thin and translucent but still very strong and used for everything from clothing to sculpture. This class will use some of the Kozo fiber Jane orders from Mino City, where she was an artist-in-residence in 1999 and returned in 2009. Also, other locally-available Mulberry tree fibers and various plant fibers will be used in the Japanese way to create handmade paper. We will use an authentic sugeta (wooden frame and bamboo woven screen) as well as Western molds & deckles (wooden frame and nylon screening) and formation aid from powdered polyethylene oxide and from okra juice. The class will cover preparing fiber, preparing the vat, adding formation aid, various ways of sheet forming and drying handmade papers as well as creative ways to use the long fibers of the paper mulberry and other similar plants. Information about obtaining kozo fibers and a Japanese-style sugeta as well as growing your own fibers for Japanese papermaking will be shared in this workshop. No experience required, but some papermaking experience will be helpful.
