Unity College to Present Exhibition Featuring Work of Karen Gelardi

 The Leonard R. Craig Gallery at Unity College will present a multi-media installation by Karen Gelardi.

Gelardi’s work involves customized raw materials and components that are used to create 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional collages. The work explores a re-invented nature that comes from being fractured, grafted and re-assembled. Materials and components include works on paper, taped elements, drawings printed onto fabric, sewn fabric forms, plastic elements and polymer prints.
