Melissa Dean's Art Gallery
I get so impressed every time I go to an art gallery . The title of Melissa's gallery in St.Mary's college was 'Consumed.' I was wondering how she will take us to her world.
There were several of her print art works in Montgomery Hall. It was interesting to attend the artist's talk because I have never had an opportunity to listen to any artist about their works before.
As I listened to Dean, I understood her work concept better and the explanation actually made me more interested in her works.
Creatively she used the image of camera in order to show our visual culture. The objects that she used were not a rare or new items, but day-to-day objects that we normally live with, use constantly without noticing the beauty of them. Dean did not created the beauty, but did investigate it and renovate it with a value that she wanted to put into it. I liked her attempts and ingenious ideas.
