Wrapping in, Wrapping on, Wow, Wrapping!

Wrapping in, Wrapping on, Wow, Wrapping!
Curated by: Ema Ishii
Opening Reception Friday, April 3 6-8pm
Show runs April 1-7

A collection of works that contain body, object, and even air. Our works show the personal understanding and expression of the word “wrapping”. Wrapping is everywhere. Our body is wrapped in clothing, we are wrapped in the air, and our planet is wrapped in the galaxy. Wrapping can be beautiful, decorative, functional/non-functional, or part of an art making.

Participating artists:
Derya Hanife Altan
Casey Droege
Ema Ishii
Emily Nachison

Tricia Stackle
