Press Release for Naturally and Artificially Flavored



HeART of Healing Gallery was pleased to host both this opening and show.  Several of the artists were able to attend the event and it was a great pleasure to chat with them about their work.  Like most art that has been thought out, each had arrived at their current mediums through introspection, dedicated exploration of the materials used, and technical development. 
All of these artists have been working on their master's degrees at SIUC.  Although most of the pieces submitted are two dimensional, many were 3D and included ceramics, glass, wood, and metal.  Full bios of the students with images of their work is available on their Graduate School Gallery.
The images below are a few of the pieces currently showing at HeART of Healing Gallery.  The show will be up through December 11th, so do come visit.
