Neva Mikulicz:
They All Wore Pearls

Artist Reception Thursday January 12, 2012, 6:00 to 8:30 pm
January 12 through February 11

The series of thirteen works are collectively entitled “They All Wore Pearls” by Mikulicz and, with one exception, are images depicting women in a variety of situations and roles. The finely detailed drawings, based on photographs she finds in family albums and archives alike, return to a Baby Boomer childhood in the USA of the 1950s, but each photograph, in being re-rendered by her pencil, acquires a nearly ineffable unease. It is in this tension that the artist finds her distinct voice.
