Fragments: Reflections on Memory

Juried by Reiker Dean, Exhibition & Education Specialist, Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center 

 Date: Feb 21 2025 - Apr 27 2025 

Gallery: Kay Daugherty Gallery

This exhibition seeks to explore how individual and collective memory can shape our identity and perception, influencing our understanding of the world around us. Whether through nostalgia, trauma, joy, or loss, memory intertwines with our daily lives and exists as a fluid, shifting narrative. We challenge artists to explore the fragmented nature of memory, its fluidity, distortions, and how the passage of time affects our perception of the past and present.

This exhibition will be open to the public in the Kay Daugherty Gallery of Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center, from February 21, 2025, to April 27, 2025. We are also excited to be hosting an Annmarie After Hours opening reception on February 21, 2025 from 5pm-7pm.
