The Curated Gallery
Thursday March 5 starts The Curated Gallery’s celebration of women in fine art in a gallery entitled Metamorphosis: Exploring Growth, Change, and the Beauty of Becoming.
This exhibition, on view for Women’s History Month, comprises a collective of artists’ works across different modalities, including painting, sculpture, textile, photography and installation.
The exhibition is set up to take its visitors on a journey, as the pieces are organized into three movements — “Dissolution,” “Becoming” and “Emergence” — all a part of the metamorphosis gallery theme.
Lowe Mill artist Liza Jane Richey has a large wooden sculpture on display and painted words on one of the exhibit walls! Her works are not ones you want to miss.
The Curated Gallery always supplies visitors with an incredibly artistic experience, and we know Metamorphosis will do the same.
- Where: 930 Old Monrovia Rd NW, Huntsville
- When: Wednesday-Sunday, 11AM-6PM
- Metamorphosis: Thursday, March 5 – Saturday, March 21
