BFA Student Exhibits The William Feick Arts Center at Green Mountain College will exhibit artwork from five fine arts students through May of 2013. Lizzie Helbig, Elizabeth Billings, Marijo Bineault, Ian Barnum, and Annie Parham will each participate in a solo exhibit to complete their Bachelor’s in Fine Arts degree. Lizzie Helbig, from Pittstown, New Jersey presents her audience with an experience of scale shift. Her works will include a ceramic installation, drawings, and collages which highlight the replication of forms and patterns in nature. Helbig layers forms that repeat at different levels of scale, from so small to so large that we cannot relatively understand them. Vermonter Elizabeth Billings out of Winooski paints in oils and gouache. Her exhibit Kinetic, of or relating to the motion of material bodies and the forces and energy associated therewith, is an exploration of movement and energy created from brush strokes and color. Inspired by her natural surroundings Billings uses source imagery as a base which she then builds upon with her paint and mark making. Kinetic will open on Friday, March 15, 2013 with a reception from 6-8 PM, and will run through April 2. Marijo Bineault of Springfield, Massachusetts uses drawing and painting to remove herself from the hectic world around her. Using non-traditional mark making techniques paired with inks and paints, Marijo lets the materials guide the outcome of each piece. Cosmic Imperatives will be on exhibit April 5 through April 16, 2013 with a reception on Friday, April 5, from 6-8 PM. Through photography and printmaking with watercolor, Ian Barnum from Norwood, New Jersey portrays the beauty and message of design in two of his interests, ecological design and vintage cars. His exhibit Double Design, will open on Friday, April 19, 2013 with a reception from 6-8 PM, and will run through April 30. Watercolorist and New Jersey resident Annie Parham explores the natural flow of water using a kaleidoscope of hues. With intentional mark-making and the manipulation of organic forms, she entices the imagination of the viewer into a whimsical world of shape and color. Aquarian Visions: An Exploration of Watercolor and Imagination opens on Friday, May 3, 2013 with a reception from 6-8 PM, and will run through May 12. The exhibition and all events are free and open to the public. General gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday, 1-5 p.m. or by appointment.
