About the Installations:

Floating Forest is an engaging exhibit that transforms the UMLAUF’s gallery space. Created in collaboration with local professionals – Fatima Betts, Kate Dibble, Judy Labib, and Nicole Mwei – this installation showcases 12-foot felt trees suspended from the gallery's ceiling. Visitors are invited to wander through this enchanting forest!

 

Suspended at UMLAUF introduces a captivating new exhibition series highlighting sculptural works by various artists, suspended in the versatile Crenshaw Room. The current installation displays Great Mother, a nine-foot wooden sculpture by artist Valérie Chaussonnet.
