CENTER GALLERY
Trending Towards Tapestry / A Changing Epoch | Rachael Juzeler
Trending Towards Tapestry / A Changing Epoch is an exhibit of my explorations in glass, mosaic, and plastics. With my all-encompassing
philosophy of creative reuse and working with processes having a high degree of experimentation,
my art is reflective of the intense beauty found in the natural world and my surroundings
in Southeast Alaska, while acknowledging and reflecting on the societal problems of
waste, industrial and plastic pollution, and climate change. Entwining my research
into cave paintings, crazy quilts, plastic recycling and utilizing my continuing education
in painting and glasswork, I have woven together an exhibit illuminating all of these
subjects.
NORTH GALLERY
FACE IT! - Faces of Fear, Anger, Reverie, Defiance, Delusion and more | Ronald Viol
Face IT! is an exhibition, primarily, of ceramic vessels and sculptures that explore how the
human face expresses ideas, emotions, feelings, and moods. The sculptures range in
size from several inches to over two feet. The works are made of stoneware clay and
they are stained, underglazed, painted, weathered, and glaze fired to cone 5.
SOUTH GALLERY
Tinkering | Robert Werner
Tinkering is an exhibition of a variety of engineered objects that have been created for fun
over the last 8 years. Most have some purpose and are designed using 3D printing and
tiny computer brains. A full description of each creation as well as detailed instructions
on how to build them is included with each object.
