curated by Gail Nathan
Exhibition dates: January 19 to March 4, 2023
Opening Reception: Thursday, January 19th, 6:30-8:30pm
BRAC's Executive Director, Gail Nathan, curated this show to present visual art that operates in, or reflects, the monumental scale that the natural world encompasses. From the vast whirlwinds of hurricanes expressed by Linda Cunningham's immense painting, to the tornado-like force of Wildriana Paulino's spiraling translucent objects, to Michele Brody's sheets of dried pulp with Cattails in relief capturing the subtle loss of natural species from our daily lives, these massive artworks invite the viewer to be personally engulfed by a feeling of being one with nature, but at the same time wary of the effects of climate change and pollution on our "environment" and our beings.
