Celebrate the opening of Hand Drawn Circle at the exhibition’s evening reception from 5–8 p.m. on Thursday, March 23!
Hand Drawn Circle: Arts of Life Studio Past and Present brings together work by former and current artists who utilize the Arts of Life studio. The exhibition’s title is a nod to one of the key formal components of founding artist Veronica Cuculich’s body of work, which she referred to as “babydolls”: a simplified figure with an often-enlarged circular head that Cuculich returned to throughout her practice. These “babydolls” were often drawn with mandala-like linear elements and stripes of color, visually paralleling many types of religious devotional iconography. The works presented in Hand Drawn Circle comprise a range of approaches to the sacred act of representing thoughts in form.
Light refreshments will be available at the reception.
