Tales of Change
A show opened at The Catherine G. Murphy Gallery at St. Catherine University over the weekend titled Gemma: Tales of Change.
It is a show of work by Gemma Rossini Cullen, who is highly interested in the beauty of nature and the process of transformation, such as changes of the body, psyche and soul. In one series of images, a girl is slowly transformed over the course of five drawings to complex scene of movement and shapes that resembles a face. It will surely captivate you.
