***Guest Curated by Sara Wenokur

The way we perceive color is complex and can change depending on a variety of factors. Color has the power to transcend language allowing for a universal understanding of emotion. In this exhibit, I invite the viewer to immerse themselves in a world of color, and to consider their own perceptions and emotions in relation to the work. The viewer will see how colors can change depending on lighting conditions, surrounding colors, and our own individual visual experiences.

Sara Wenokur is a Chicago based floral designer and multi-disciplinary artist. She graduated with a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a focus in textile design, an influence which is still seen in her collage work. Inspired by scientific botanical illustrations, Sara’s repetitive patterns are both minimalistic and expressive. Each collage is bright and uplifting, concealing the laborious process behind it. After being drawn, colored, and cut, each piece is then arranged to create an immersive field of color. The results do not flatly reflect the forms found in nature, but rather represent a surreal synthesis of plants and pattern
