The Galleries: February 24 - April 2

Gallery One: Peter Zelle
“My art is an exercise of my intuition and my passion for color and form. I think of my sculptures as compositions, a word that resonates for me musically as well as spatially. I bring together shapes, patterns, textures, and colors to orchestrate a dynamic and harmonious whole.”

Gallery Two: “Enkindle” – Matt Dooley, Theresa Schneveis, Andrea Sorenson
“I create hand-built earthenware and stoneware vessels that underscore the importance of artifacts in human culture and highlight the universal nature of human pasts.” – Matt Dooley

“Being raised Catholic I was always intrigued with spirituality and rituals. I’m very curious about other cultures, their spirituality and how it differs from my own.” – Theresa Schneveis

“Makers and creators pull from experiences and those who have come into their lives. I as well pull from connections of those around me, my tie to the area where I live and experiences of my past.” – Andrea Sorenson

Gallery Three: Steven Johnson
“In this series of work I seek to portray an appreciation of the intricacies of Jass and improvision. With my camera, I see intimate rhythms, passages and phrases of colors and textures in neglected urban areas left alone to be influenced by natural decay and spraypaint.”

Overlook Gallery: Amara G. Hark Weber
“My sculptural footwear is an exploration of human movement, building techniques, and visual metaphor. They are objects that come alive with personal narrative when worn, with the power to challenge the viewer’s idead about form, function, body, and movement.”

Riverview Gallery: Stephanie Hunder
“Found natural objects such as collections of interesting plants, scientific drawings and diagrams, are layerd into my images via scanning, printmaking, and various contemporary or anique photo processes. Abstract in design and poetic in mood. The resulting images are also quasi-scientific records of the natural world.”

Atrium Gallery: Brenda Brousseau
“I have been beading for over 40 years. In more recent years I have used this medium as a way to document my inner journey of spiritual growth and healing. I work with ritually significant forms, like headdresses and mandalas, layering them with personal symbolism and meaning.
