Alum at Verge in contemporary exhibition
Work by alumna Chaitra Bangalore (BA 2015) is featured in the exhibition 鈥淗ome and Away鈥 at the Verge Center for the Arts in Sacramento through Jan. 20.
The exhibition features the work of two California artists 鈥 Bangalore and Jennifer Lugris. Bangalore鈥檚 portion of the show is titled 鈥淏rown Body, Body Hair.鈥 Bangalore is an artist and educator in Sacramento. Her work focuses on South Asian identity, body hair and the different definitions of female beauty. She uses a variety of mediums and methods in her work: oil painting, printmaking, digital illustration, pen and ink, scratchboard, drawing and embroidery.
According to Verge鈥檚 description of the exhibition, the name Home and Away is a tongue in cheek reference to rivaling teams in a sporting match. Verge is turning this concept on its head by bringing two California artists together to spotlight some of the state鈥檚 best work and continue the greater dialogue of contemporary art in the region.
Bangalore is an artist and educator in Sacramento.
