Artists will be presenting diverse styles of work. Andrea Carnick has created strong, sculptural paintings that convey her emotional response to memories of her childhood town in England.
Shannon Huffman constructs elegantly complex string pieces that illuminate an inner dialogue. The photographs of Courtney Macklin establish mood through her mysterious documentary self-portraits.
Britney McIntire presents colorful, mixed-media paintings based on snippets of “out of context” formal and informal conversations. Elevating a state of chaos to an artistic dialogue. Helen Grubb creates “messes” that reflect upon human quirks.
Chelsea Younkman establishes a powerful presence in the gallery with her clear-eyed, monochromatic portraits of friends reflecting the dynamic relationships they share.
The exhibit and the reception are free and open to the public. The Center for the Visual Arts is located at 620 Grove Place, Toledo, Ohio, next to the Toledo Museum of Art.
