  • 2/14 Indelible Strokes - Exhibit Reception

    You are invited to the opening reception for the newest exhibit in the Homer Babbidge Library, "Indelible Strokes." 

    Natalie Granados shares visual stories and celebrates experiences through representations of the architectural and cultural beauty of places. Using exaggerated perspectives mixed with clean lines, she creates detailed depictions of memories through portraits of landmarks. Natalie is the Special Collections Conservator for the UConn Library.

    Utilizing illumination, a method of applying gold leaf, Clara Nguyen creates paintings to capture the abstract and lyrical nature of two major personal influences: music and poetry. With a penchant for geometric forms and flowing lines, she seeks to create miniature worlds of implied meaning. Clara is the Project Archivist for the Maurice Sendak Collection at the UConn Library.

    Opening Reception
    Thursday, February 14, 4:00-5:00pm
