Art alum Helen White will exhibit works in the Alexander Gallery at Clackamas Community
College in November 2012.
The exhibition opens Tuesday, November 13. An artist's reception will take place on
Thursday, November 15, from 12 noon to 1:30 p.m. in the gallery.
Now and Again is an exhibition of approximately 20 works made with acrylic paint,
ink, found papers, wooden boards and found objects. In this body of work, White explores
past histories and current situations.
She moves between ideas of landscape and objects to bring grounding and gain appreciation
of what has come before her. Her use of found papers coupled with labor intensive
methods of scratching, sanding and occasional tearing, convey a sense of depth as
well as a sense of history.
White earned her bachelor of fine arts from Marylhurst University in 2009. She is
a member of the North Bank Artists Cooperative in Vancouver, Wash. Her work has been
featured at Marylhurst, the Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts, Palm Springs Art Museum
and the North Bank Show.
The Alexander Gallery is located in the Niemeyer Center at Clackamas Community College.
It is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Dr. Susan Carter, interim chair of the MA in Interdisciplinary Studies Department, was named vice president of the Pacific Northwest Region of the American Academy of Religion / Society of Biblical Literature in May 2013.
