“Through the Belly of the Fish,” an exhibition of paintings by Pamela Skehan ’09 is on view now through May 15 in Beeghly Library/Gallery 2001. Pamela explores grief and loss resulting from seismic global changes. During a summer visit to a lake, Skehan caught a largemouth bass. Its struggle for survival became the inspiration for this series. Drawing on art historical research, these works use the metaphors of fish, water, and swimming to understand grief and the healing process. The artist will be on campus for a public Gallery Talk and Reception on April 21 from 4:30 – 6 p.m. in Beeghly Library’s Gallery 2001.
