An opening reception is set for 5:30-8:30 p.m. Friday Oct. 5.
With “The Gray Area,” Ashley Rogers seeks to highlight the reality of being a woman, a human being, and how society and the influence of others affect everything. “My purpose of this body of work is to confront the human experience. As the only story I know is my own, I have chosen to use my own human form as a model to illustrate body image, emotion, and the growth from child to adult in various social and personal contexts.” Through pattern, texture, and mark making Rogers has transformed the human body into decorative objects, a reflection on the role the female body.
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, 10 am. to 6 p.m. Thursday and Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
