Show: "Ornamenting the Body: Interventions, Meditations, and Transformations"

Our group show running from February 10 to 19, 2016 grew out of the Winter 2016 term class "Body Ornamentation" taught by Professor Richard Klank.

The show included pieces from all students in the class, including photography, sculpture, textile, and video.   Professor Klank wrote a show statement, included in image at top of this post.
