Lauren Baum
presents a series of work inspired by the aesthetics of outer space, and the
microscopic elements of the human body. Her digital paintings integrate the landscape
of outer space with the microscopic elements. Both the universe and the
microscopic world are completely unique and wondrous in their own way and this
work brings them both together in a unified way. This show includes large sized
digital prints printed on foam core.
The
exhibition is scheduled to open Tuesday March 21 with an artist reception with
refreshments from 5-7 p.m. The reception is open to the public and on campus
parking is free after 5 p.m. Northcutt Steele Gallery open Monday-Friday,
8am-4pm.

I am curious about your choice of unique, wondrous, and unified, Lauren, I would challenge you to push yourself a bit further in thinking about adjectives that describe the mood and effect of your works. These terms could mean different things to different viewers.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what constitutes a "digital painting" in your mind? Is this a digital collage? How might you describe your technique for a non-art reader?
I would indicate when you will graduate with your BFA. And if you have any plans after graduation.
