In this exhibit, artist Lauri Dunn transforms images of insect wings into meditative, modern photographs and photo sculptures. “My work is inspired by the natural world, but I bring my love of the urban environment to each piece with strong contrast, geometric forms, and metallic resin coating,” Lori writes. “I begin each piece by photographing an insect that I have rehydrated and spread. Each wing has something extraordinary, whether it be the color, the texture of the scales, or the beautiful shapes that repeat themselves and I photograph them in a way that emphasizes these attributes.”

The Silhouette Project: Newcomers illuminates the power of the shadow voice of local High School refugees. Dona Laurita’s ongoing photographic project continues to give a voice to segments of our population in our local and national communities that are too often being relegated to the shadows. Silhouettes is a visual story expose that shares the unique and immensely different stories and backgrounds of Newcomers in America today. Within these individual stories, there exist many commonalities and themes across their narratives.

Gallery hours: Weds 4-7, Thurs 4-9:30, Fri 4-8:30, Sat 12-6, Sun 12-5.
