Featured Artist - Caitlin Jemma:
Caitlin Jemma’s digital art and photo collaboration with Giant Eye Photography will be displayed in the Lille Aeske gallery for the month of November.
The series on display features the Glam Reaper, a reimagination of the Grim Reaper. The dark and grim is transmuted into sparkle and glam! Death is not something to fear; rather, our own impermanence is what gives this very moment meaning and depth.
Before our Next Big Adventure, may we enjoy this one to its absolute fullest. The Glam Reaper is our galactic mother who reminds us that we are all made of stardust. She invites us to shine as bright as the stars – in this life and beyond.
Featured Artist - Aleah Pechthalt:
Washington based Mixed Media artist, Aleah Pechthalt, has been active within the arts for the past decade. Focusing on portraiture and body work, Pechthalt is most concentrated on charcoal realism and the human form. She has expanded her work into collage, oil painting and textile work. Her themes of human experience, sexuality, and introspection echo through her practice.
Pechthalt is traditionally trained within the arts, growing up with her Grandmother as a professional oil painter. Pechthalt attended Sotheby’s Institute of Art in London during fall of 2021, she then went on to become an art in residence at “Lakkos Artist Residency” in Heraklion, Greece in fall of 2022.
Her debut self portrait series titled “Solace is 22” was exhibited in the
Lakkos 2022 residential fall exhibition. Pechthalt is currently pursuing her Bachelor of Studio Arts degree at WWU.
