Kathleen O'Connell: New and Recent Works
The exhibition is on display August 4 –September27
Reception August 5, 6-8pm


Gadsden, AL - The Art Department at Gadsden State Community College in partnership with the Meadows Library presents New and Recent Works, a solo exhibition of mixed media sculptures and works on paper by Kathleen O’Connell at the Meadows Gallery.  The exhibition opens with a reception and gallery talk on Monday, August 5, from 6-8 p.m.  Admission is free and the reception is open to the public.   

Presented in this exhibition are distinct series of works that share a love for color and whimsical form. "I think of these works as visual poetry of the day-to-day. All were inspired and influenced by living in Lima, Peru: an enormous chaotic city begging to be understood; offering up incredible fruits of the sea; spotted with over-manicured gardens and my desires to have them grow lush" - Kathleen O'Connell.
