Saddleback staff display exotic works at art exhibition

The fine arts faculty at Saddleback College presented a wide-variety of works this week at the Art Gallery.The exhibit includes pottery, paintings, sculptures, and avant-garde works, all produced exclusively by our faculty.

The diversity of the works presented not only highlighted the creative prowess of the instructors, but also the wide variety of courses and disciplines a student can learn here at Saddleback. Everything from printmaking and sculpting to photography, video and audio are represented.

Some of the centerpieces from the event include “Train”, a two-minute and

six-second multimedia loop of a roaring subway, and “Diversity”, a massive clay sculpture of twisting forms.

Other more traditional works are being presented, such as portraits and photography, but the exhibition as a whole trends towards a more modern feel.

The exhibit runs from February 12 –
