Exhibits

 

Works by Tom Nakashima
Fowler Gallery, Through September 25
Nakashima is a contemporary artist whose works address complex, interconnected relationships through images that are apparently representational at first glance, but become increasingly abstract and unknowable to the observant viewer.

 

For more information about Mr. Nakashima, please visit his website or his blog. The blog features 5 video interviews with Mr. Nakashima, made on site at The Hudgens.
