Expressed in a wide range of media – from glass to collage, print, paint, drawing and digital – the 3rd Annual Black Artists Exhibition at Tacoma Community College through March 7th is a dynamic and brightly hued exhibit. The overall feel of the show is vibrant, uplifting and as refreshing as a dip in a clear pool.
Lynette Charters, now showing through the end of January at the gallery at Tacoma Community College is having fun setting the record straight. “The Matildas are the joyful part,” she said. “The Missing Women series poses the question of why women aren’t included in exhibitions and museums and history, but the Matildas are all about what women achieve and how important their achievements are.”
The Gallery at Tacoma Community College is hosting its second annual Black Artists’ Exhibition in celebration of Black History Month with a lavish display of painting, drawing, photography, glass and digital art. Twenty-two South Sound artists are represented, and there are more than 40 pieces of art in the gallery.
Surh O’Connell’s rich and detailed watercolors at The Gallery at Tacoma Community College are like the artist herself, elegant and refined with an inner complexity, wisdom, and intellect. They show a rare and quiet dedication and stamina which reflects all aspects of Surh O’Connell’s life.
