“Reflections on Lunations,” New Exhibit by Rebecca vonSeldeneck-Houser to Open at UNC Asheville

December 1, 2011

A new exhibition, combining light, glass, metal, ceramic slip, ivory chiffon and performance art, will open December 9 in the S. Tucker Cooke Gallery in UNC Asheville’s Owen Hall. “Reflections on Lunations / An Allegorical Exploration into Ancient Calendation” is the BFA Senior Exhibition by Rebecca vonSeldeneck-Houser. An opening reception will take place from 6-8 p.m. in the gallery. Both the reception and the exhibit are free and open to the public.

On the opening night, this conceptual installation will also feature a collaborative performance by dancer Julia Vessey. According to vonSeldeneck-Houser, the installation is an attempt to create a unique environment bringing light to overlooked beauty and transcendent patterns, and is a visual metaphor of lunar phases and how time is perceived.

“Reflections on Lunations” will be on exhibit weekdays from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. through December 20. For more information, visit art.unca.edu or call 828.251.6559.
