Nicole Jacquard: Stories from Scotland

April 6 – May 7

Reception: May 4, 4p – 7p

Nicole joins us for a solo exhibition featuring five pieces. Each piece is comprised of an enamel frame encompassing a laser etched piece of mica. This is then set forward in front of a graphic print so that the light passes through the mica and creates a moving story. Nicole uses video accompaniments to tell a story through these pieces. 

Meet Nicole and share light refreshments with us on Thursday May 4th from 4p – 7p at our River North location. We look forward to seeing you!
