CE Visual Arts Instructors' work around town

Check out these two new exhibitions by CE Visual Arts Instructors Geri Montano and Miranda Putman!

Traded Moons: New works by Geri Montano
Galería de la Raza 
April 7, 2012 to May 12, 2012
Opening Reception: Saturday, April 7 at 7:30pm

The circle has long been associated with many motifs: the feminine, the moon, a medicine wheel or shield. In this new show, San Francisco mixed media artist Geri Montano takes the symbol of the circle in addressing sex trafficking of indigenous women. Using this motif alongside art as a healing component, Traded Moons features over 40 circular panels documentating and illustrating ideas of power, freedom, pain, and hope during a time where over 80% of those involved in human trafficking are women. A portion of works on display were created by sex traffic survivors.

"My work is concerned with the tensions between drawing and painting, my own physical energy, an investigation of the inner structures of the natural world, and the interpretation of sketches and diagrams by expressionistic means."
