Epperson Gallery , Figure, juried show, judged by Michelle Gregor “The figure is primary to our evolving understanding of our human identities such as gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity. How do you depict the human form in your Art through a modern lens?”

Artsy, Taking Shape:Abstraction to Figuration, juried show, judged by Jackie Gendel ”Playing with the relationship between the human form and the human experience of seeing has been a practice since the beginning of time. Some believe that observational art is the purest form of abstraction, while others argue that abstraction is the void of human/form awareness. What does it look like when these two ideas become one?”
