Body Conscious

April 5 – July 12, 2014 
Opening Reception: Saturday, April 5, 5-7pm

Our bodies are our first means of expression; they communicate as no other medium can. When a visual artist features a figure in their work, we feel an echo of recognition in our own bodies, which can provide an unexpected immediacy with the artwork.

For this exhibition, we chose Hambidge Fellows whose works make us aware of the human figure in various ways and for various purposes. Exhibiting artists are Krista Grecco, Fahamu Pecou, Iman Person, Ann Rowles, and Richard Russell.
