Leslie Banta displayed her luminous paintings, stereoscopic photographs, and otherworldly sculptures at the Hartzler Library gallery. We met Leslie and her husband Rob when we wandered in to their art store in Staunton on opening day. It was a fortuitous meeting.
Cyndi Gusler, my colleague in the Visual and Communication Arts department at EMU, makes hybrid objects that explore the intersection between the natural world and consumer culture. Here are a few sculpture examples I photographed for her recently.
