Description
Body Politic
This exhibition investigates how the body creates a language of its own, and what it means living in a body. The term “body politic” refers to an ancient idea of how the human body has metaphorically informed our cultures, legal systems, institutions, and politics. Participants include Elisabeth Haight, Jordan Hartt and Artist Collaborators from the Port Townsend community.
Through April.

Virginia H. Davison, printmaker/sculptor, presents a series based on the Pythagorean Theorem. Davison is fascinated with color relationships, spatial harmonies, texture, and surfaces that feel exciting and illusionary. Her shellac plate prints are done by creating one base plate, and then smaller shaped plates are used to add the new colors and shapes, slowly building up layers and meaning.
