Enlivened Spaces Inner Child exhibition detail of umbrellas and rain

September 10, 2020 – September 30, 2020

Gallery hours by appointment in order to comply with campus measures pertaining to COVID19.

Email unfgalleries@unf.edu to create an appointment

Exhibition description:

Have you ever seen a rainbow after the rain? To most individuals, the rainbow is seen as a beautiful phenomenon. For me, the collision of water and light leads to a new dimension where I feel safe and at ease. Because the world is riddled with the grays of anxiety, we created a space of vibrant colors to connect individuals with their inner child. The overall objective for the installation was not to preach about the facts and statistics of anxiety but to give the viewer a safe space to heal, have fun, and renew.
