Eternal Garden, an Exhibition of Works by Elizabeth Myers, will be on view from April 3-24 in the Slingshot Gallery at Catapult Creative House.
Elizabeth Myers was born in Sikeston, Missouri. She is pursuing a BFA in Art with an emphasis in Sculpture from SEMO, and plans to apply for MFA programs after graduation. She has been interested in art since she was a child and hopes to share her knowledge and skills in the future by becoming a college professor.
Eternal Garden presents a captivating dialogue between the industrial and the organic, the rigid and the delicate. In this imagined landscape, twisted steel sculptures of animals inhabit a surreal, permanent state. These animals are set against steel flowers, which stand in metallic contrast to the hyper-realistic paintings of their living counterparts. The exhibition explores themes of permanence versus impermanence, celebrating the enduring spirit of nature and the timeless quality of art.
An opening reception for Eternal Garden will take place on Friday, April 10 from 5-7 p.m. in the Slingshot Gallery at Catapult Creative House.
Catapult Creative House is open Monday through Friday from noon-4 p.m. All gallery exhibitions, events and talks are free and open to the public.
