Resurrection

November 1, 2023 @ 10:00 am - March 30, 2024 @ 4:30 pm

Free

This video Installation by Valerie Wedel, an art professor at William Woods University in Fulton, Missouri, features enlarged, hand-painted copies of letters that are held in the archives of the State Historical Society of Missouri. The images have been artistically “aged” for effect, crumpled, torn, and scattered to represent controversies surrounding access to historical information. The reversed and animated texts symbolize breathing life back into these stories. These animations are intended to revive the texts.

Wedel will be in the art gallery during the SHSMO Holiday Open House, Saturday, December 2, 1-3 p.m. to discuss her installation with visitors.
