Artist Talk: Nika Blasser

Swimming in Saltwater delves into the interplay of positive and negative spaces, the forms created by shadows and their absences, and the abstractions arising when bodies are removed from their usual context. The work in this exhibition combines multiple material explorations that mine overlapping concepts that highlight the fragility, transience, and beauty of nature.

Sally Johnson will start off the evening with questions for Nika, then we'll end with questions from the audience. The proceeds from this event benefit The Dalles Art Center. Thank you to the Columbia Gorge Community College for your support.
