The Forest
December 19, 2014 @ 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
We are heading into the winter season with a special installation based exhibition The Forest by local artist, Josie Luciano. The exhibition will be on display from Dec.16th – Jan. 9th and an opening reception with the artist will be held on Friday, December 19th from 6-8pm.
Going into the forest means opening yourself up to a world that is beyond human. The experience of an animal gaze at your back heightens the wilderness encounter in ways that are different for each person. Luciano’s exhibit simulates the feeling of being watched while asking viewers to examine their emotions as they emerge from a whimsical, sinister, or reverent woods – depending on who is doing the looking.
Josie Luciano is a Reno artist interested in the bleeding boundaries between self and other, self and nature, & self and cultural myth. She works across various media including drawing, painting, printmaking, and sculpture. To see more work, go to www.josieluciano.com.
