CRISTINA CLARIMON "10 REASONS WHY..." EXHIBIT OPENS OCTOBER 27
EUGENE, OR - The Lane Community College Art Gallery presents "10 Reasons Why...," a collective body of work by New Mexico artist Cristina Clarimon. The show consists of mixed media work that stems from a collage-based format.
Clarimon says the collection represents “loose pages of this fragmentary story. There are commonalities among them. Perhaps there's even a subtle thread running through all of them, but each one is self-contained. They could be seen as items in a ledger or a diary. Moments that have already come to pass and have somehow tweaked the direction of my life. They are not literal descriptions of such events, but rather metaphors comprised of both the experience and my reaction to it."
The show runs from October 27 through November 13. The gallery is located in building 11 on main campus, 4000 E. 30th Avenue. There is no charge for admission. The Art and Applied Design Department phone number is 463-5409.
Lane is an equal opportunity/affirmative action institution.
