Hollister, MO—The Southern Missouri Arts Connection (SMAC) will host a solo exhibit of the work of artist Gala Keller, entitled Looking Closely. The show will run March 7-29 at the SMAC Art Center on historic Downing Street.
“My work of assemblage consists mainly of found natural objects,” Keller explained. “I create art using butterfly wings and other insect parts into works that accentuate the patterns of nature.” Visitors to the art center are invited to look closely at iridescent moth wings, spiky grasshopper legs, tiny bee tongues, and other incredible structures incorporated into the art, calling attention to nature’s repeating patterns and curious beauty. Both the exhibit and the reception are free and open to the public. The opening reception will be held Friday, March 7 from 6-9 p.m. during which Keller will give a short talk as well as answer questions.
