All Shows |
This show is an attempt to come to terms with the dead by
looking to the past and to the present.
Eric Todd:
| Gothic Portraits of Beautiful
Decay
Painter Eric Todd explores dark metaphors of translucent
watercolor skulls and rainbow streaked oil skeletons
inspired by Shakespeare, Mexican Day of the Dead, and
The Grateful Dead. This show features selections on
this theme.

Almendra Sandoval:
| Dia de Muertos
Almendra’s photographs were taken with A-1 Canon
Cameras and created between 2002 and 2005. The majority
were taken in Chihuahua, Mexico, and a few were taken
in and around the Pacific Northwest. She states:
"The advantage of photography as a mechanical
(as opposed to digital) process is that the camera involved
is a essentially simple machine."
