Uncharted Visions: Alexandra Griffen, Suzanne Griffith, Colleen O'Donnell, Peggy O'Donnell & Colleen Quinn

Cerulean Arts is pleased to present Uncharted Visions, an exhibition of figurative sculpture guest curated by sculptor and teacher Colleen O’Donnell. O’Donnell’s bronze sculptures are focused on the human form, blending reality and imagination with an expressionist touch. A limitless inspiration for her, the human figure is a vehicle to present political, spiritual and personal themes. The artists O’Donnell has selected for this exhibition, Alexandra Griffen, Suzanne Griffith, Peggy O’Donnell and Colleen Quinn, are similarly inspired by the human figure, and are long-time students of O’Donnell at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Although the same life model may serve as a starting point, the artistic processes of inspiration, frustration and redemption are experienced in their own way. Each artist takes the common subject to a unique and individual place, whether it be naturalistic, symbolic, expressionistic or mythological.
