Rara Avis

Rara Avis: Latin for unique, literally a "rare bird.”

In this group show, new work by five Bromfield artists takes wing: Laurie Alpert, Adria Arch, Debra Giller, Kathy A. Halamka, and Vivian Pratt. Exploring process and content in diverse works on paper, wood and clay, each artist soars into a fresh and personal direction.

• Laurie Alpert, a printmaker, displays an artist book based on her recent
interest in the Dead Sea Scrolls.

• Adria Arch presents an 8' x 8' work consisting of necklace-like lengths of inkblots that detail her fascination with symmetry.

• Ceramic sculptor Debra Giller shows sculptures relating to floral shapes and marine life.

• Kathy A. Halamka experiments with the imperfections of mirror imagery.

• Vivian Pratt shares her series of cyanotype-derived images, based on roots that suggest figures.
