During this time of year when we need as much joyful light and vibrant color as we can get, please join artist JP Morrison Lans in the Catamount Arts Cabaret Room for an exploration into how color can be manipulated and animated by light. Participants will contribute to a mural that dances and changes hues under a rainbow of LED light. Come prepared to experiment with paints, learn a little about color theory and get messy.
The installation will be open to the public for viewing on the following dates:
Thursday, February 26, 1-9pm
Friday, February 27, 11am-9pm
Saturday, February 28, 11am-9pm
JP Morrison Lans is a Tulsa-based artist whose figurative work blends realism and abstraction to explore how the interior self processes the perplexities of the external world. Her paintings center her own body, family, and symbolic forms—hands, mouths, and inverted figures—as metaphors for desire, self-preservation, introspection, motherhood and recently the dark humor of middle-age womanhood. At age eleven, a visit to the Carole Laroche Gallery in Santa Fe ignited Morrison Lans’ desire to create an art practice, leading to her first solo exhibition at the Tulsa Artists’ Coalition in the year 2000. Since earning her BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2007, she has exhibited nationally and internationally, with recent solo shows in San Francisco and Santa Fe. Her work is held in public and private collections, including the Bundaberg Regional Gallery (Australia) and NBC Bank (Oklahoma). Morrison Lans has held residencies at the School of Visual Arts, Vermont Studio Center, Truro Art Center, and in Menorca, Spain; she is also a member of the international artist collective Teleportal.Gallery. Morrison Lans and her child can typically be found experimenting with encaustic and Lego, respectively, in their backyard studio.
