August 6, 2021 First Friday: Sheila Wyne

Sheila Wyne presents The Strata Series. Strata are layers of rock that tell us stories—sometimes vivid and startling—of geological time. The found and manipulated signs are detritus from our built environment.  Signage is a symbol of our species priorities for how to care for and direct ourselves often to the exclusion of other ecosystems. 

Wyne is a visual artist based in Anchorage.  Her studio work has been shown across the state, the Lower 48 and overseas.  Her work is in permanent collections of the Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau and Homer Museums.  She has designed over 20 public artworks.
