Gallery 25 member, Valerie Runningwolf will present a
solo exhibit for the month of May. Valerie Runningwolf
explores her personal experiences through reaching
out
to others through artistic expression to evoke a
sense of
connectedness. Many views and images of
connections
are explored and the main focus is
represented on aging.
The artist explores the idea that at the end of our lives
our
path leads us back to the beginning of our lives.
This idea
is portrayed in the piece “Full Circle” which
contains more
than 20 examples of artwork done by
the artist at age 3
years old and ending as she predicts
at age 97 while in
the last stages of Alzheimer’s. Other
concepts and ideas
represented through personal
reflections include nature,
spiritualism, love, joy and fear.
