Anamnesis

Sorry I have not been on the ball with posting recently, and in fact I had been so busy that it slipped my mind to mention something really exciting!


I currently have a show up at the Centre Gallery, a student run facility on the USF campus.

You can find out more at the Facebook event page here.

From the event page:

"The Centre Gallery Presents “Anamnesis”
A self-exploration of identity and disability through multi-media
Tampa, FL (January 5, 2012) – From January 9 through 20, the Centre Gallery at the University of South Florida will host Anamnesis. Visitors to the gallery will be exposed to the artists’ representation of self and are encouraged to take an inward look at themselves and their own ideas of self as part of the experience. The exhibit will include various multi-media pieces including hand toned paper, charcoals, ink, paint, and other materials. There is also a photographic series that consists of digital compositions created through multiple steps of process, including self portraiture and vellum assemblages. Other works include sculptural materials such as clay, wax, plastic sheeting, and wood.

“With work like this it would be too easy to say something like “the inner workings of my mind, self expression” or so on. But that's not really true. They are really just getting the imprints of some process that is going on in my head, a symptom or evidence of a greater whole.”

Shannon Buchanan, 24, is currently a Senior set to graduate next fall with a BFA in Art studio.

The Anamnesis reception will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, January 20th, in the Centre Gallery at the Marshall Student Center in room 2700, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, Fla. It is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
For more information, please contact the Centre Gallery at 813-974-5464.

The show features some all new work, and I really hope I will see a nice turn out during it's run and for the reception. I know the readership of this blog is limited to "people who probably already know this is happening", but it's never bad to have the information out there and available.
