Art Show Opening Tonight
Don't miss the new art exhibit in the Jean B. King Gallery at the Herrett Center: "Ninety Three at Eight"
by Jessica Larsen. This exhibit opens tonight with a reception at 7:00 pm
From the artist: Ninety Three at Eight is in a sense a road map of my youth. This is a series of works that represent a period of time in my childhood, where weekends and holidays were spent driving the stretch of road between my two homes and families. Highway 93 became a place where my adolescent mind beset itself the hurts and delights of each week, while staring out the window at the landscape that passed me by. The scenery and my distant sentiments have merged into a singular concept that has evolved into this current series of works.
These objects embody my nostalgic response to the landscape, as well as colors, textures and everyday objects. I am recreating my perceptions of my past by deconstructing the imagery and symbolism of these nostalgic triggers and piecing them together into solid tangible pieces. Mixed media lends itself well to this idea of making an abstract visual narrative. I construct and design the pieces as a whole because I believe the frame is not only a way to display my work but also an integral part of the narrative.
Examples of Jessica's Work:
