On frigid winter days it may seem far away, but spring is soon coming. Life lies dormant beneath the
cold and ice, waiting to resurface. Lana Santorelli Gallery's latest group exhibition, Thaw, focuses on
the natural world about to reawaken. From Ha Rhin Kim's delicate anthropomorphic plant creatures of
her Rotte Tree series to Robert Cannon's stately living terraform sculpture, Male Armored Torso, Thaw
exhibits work made from and inspired by elements of nature.
Exhibiting Artists: Kristin Anderson, Allan Baillie, Blair Borthwick, Robert Cannon, Laurel Garcia
