Caldwell Arts Council in Lenoir, NC, Features Works by Mark Nystrom, Rebekah Tolley, & Susannah Zucker

The Caldwell Arts Council in Lenoir, NC, will present Science as Art, featuring works by Mark Nystrom, Rebekah Tolley, and Susannah Zucker, on view from Aug, 2 - 23, 2013. A reception will be held on Aug. 2, from 5-7pm.

Mark Nystrom is currently an assistant professor in the Department of Art at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. His real time wind drawings - generated with wind data collected by weather instruments placed outside a gallery - have been shown at the Green Hill Center for North Carolina Art in Greensboro and the Asheville Art Museum.

Rebekah Tolley is a printmaker and digital media artist. Her work uses traditional printmaking and digitally-generated imagery in animated dequences that are projected onto sculptural forms. She is represented in collections such as the Hood Museum, Library and Archives Canada, The National Library of Quebec, The Boston Public Library, the Amity Art Foundation, and the Kohler Library as well as numerous other public and private collections.

Susannah Zucker is a figurative ceramicist and is a Figure Sculpture Teacher at Odyssey Ceramic Arts Center in Asheville, NC. She strives to generate imagery that will circumvent automatic reaction, and draw the viewer toward a deeper sense of intensity with regards to the body. Her work is anatomically driven and often involves layering of animalistic, medical and or fetishistic overtones, reconfiguring the bodies to signify something other than ordinary human conditions. Her sculptures have been featured in solo and group exhibitions in museums and galleries in California, Georgia, Colorado, Tennessee and North Carolina.
