It’s time for the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse’s graduating senior’s art show. The opening reception is Friday, April 24th at 5pm at the University Gallery at 333 North 16th Street. The exhibition will be up through Friday, May 8th. Gallery hours are Mon-Thurs: noon – 8pm, and Fri-Sat: noon – 5pm
For those of you who can’t make it to the show, or just want to see more, here are images from my showcase. I wanted to incorporate at the show both my printmaking/fine arts experiences and my costume design background. The figures are replications of one of my dress forms. I used the form as a molding base for the many layers of paper and collage. The top final layers on each piece are made of old dress patterns, pages torn from paperback books, and strips from my letterpress printing.
From left to right, the pieces are titled: Discovery Within, Letting Go, Don’t Turn Your Back, and Time is a Runaway.
