UC Grad Student Presents Up Close and Personal in Gallery
Through pastels and charcoals, artist Courtnee Bennett draws connections between imprints on isolated regions of the body and impressions on the earth created through human presence.
Up Close and Personal will be on exhibit in the UC Clermont College Art Gallery January 15-February 3.
Bennett is a UC grad student and will graduate with a master of fine art and a master of art education in June. Her undergraduate work is in science. Her art work meshes the two disciplines.
By integrating my knowledge of human medicine and geology with my art, this series portrays terrains of the body that can also be viewed as environmental landscapes. These abstract images allow for multiple responses and interpretations and hopefully will bring awareness to the destruction the human race causes to themselves and to the environment, said Bennett.
The art gallery is sponsored by Park National Bank and located in the Snyder Building on the UC Clermont College campus in Batavia at 4200 Clermont College Drive. Hours are Monday - Thursday 7:30 a.m. 7 p.m., Friday 7:30 a.m. 5 p.m. and Saturday 8:30 a.m. 12:30 p.m. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.
