Exhibition: Laura Heit, Two Ways Down

Edith Feldenheimer Gallery, Studio Art Building

Opening reception: Tuesday, September 9, 4-6 p.m.

Artist's talk: Thursday, September 18, 4 p.m.

The experimental animation and puppet films by filmmaker and performance artist Laura Heit have been screened extensively in the U.S. and abroad. This exhibition features a hand-drawn animated installation and film, Two Ways Down, which takes inspiration from the Hieronymus Bosch work “Garden of Heavenly Delights.” Reflecting on the momentary nature of life, Heit’s fantastical piece uses thrown shadows from tabletop dioramas and a reflected and refracted animated projections to create a fleeting world where human-animal hybrids, specters, and body parts morph and flit across the walls. Funded in part by a grant from the Regional Arts and Culture council. Learn more.
