You're Invited to Experience Nocturnes: An Art Exhibit
Join us for an journey through art that challenges perception and stirs emotion. This exhibit is open to students, the public, and the entire community. Come and be part of the conversation.
In Nocturnes, Kate Clements beckons viewers into the depths of darkness to uncover the creatures that dwell there. Drawing inspiration from midnight entomology and the haunting beauty of poisonous minerals, she shapes impossibly delicate, Rorschach-like forms that embrace the seductive, beguiling nature of glass.
Reflecting a psychological dance between the allure of the unseen and the risks of pursuing it, her installations evoke both fascination and unease. Radiant, encrusted exoskeletons hover between beauty and monstrosity, exploring the precarious line between dream and nightmare.
Like moths drawn irresistibly to a flame, Nocturnes asks viewers to contemplate the pull between attraction and apprehension—a magnetism toward the unfamiliar, the dangerous, and the deeply enticing, even when instinct tells us to retreat.
