The Green Center: Tuesday, 7 October 2014

"...in common"
by Carla Benjamin

Exhibit Reception: October 7, 2014  5:00-7:00 pm

Exhibit:  October 7-November 8, 2014 
(The exhibit will close the evening of our Fall Fire Festival)

In studying life forms common to Missouri and my home state of Minnesota, I am provided with a marvelous way to feel connected to you through the Mississippi River, nature and art.  For this exhibit, I researched the size of the Mississippi River basin (it is immense, draining from 38 states), several plants indigenous to the river regions and the ever changing nature of the watersheds and the river channel.  Catching the warmth of autumn's color before the onset of winter, Parthenocissus Triptych is created specifically for this exhibit.  Ever attracted to and inspired by leaf shapes and growth patterns, I find perpetual pleasure in discovering nature's layered nuances.  It is with great delight that I share these artworks with you.
