Art by Jeff Fulmer: Fragile Desert opens
Featured are paintings, prints, and installation artwork inspired by the endangered and threatened fauna that make Nevada home.
Says Fulmer: “Fragile Desert grows out of my previous artwork inspired by Nevada and Mojave flora. Here, instead of flora, I look to interpret Nevada animal life, specifically a selection of animals listed under the federal Endangered Species Act.
These include the Mt. Charleston Blue Butterfly (Endangered), the Western, Yellow-Billed Cuckoo (Threatened), the Carson Wandering Skipper (Endangered), the Devils Hole Pupfish (Endangered), Southwestern Willow Flycatcher (Endangered), and the Ash Meadows Naucorid (Threatened).
In this project, these Nevada fauna become the vehicle I use to investigate texture, pattern, repetition, color, progression, and variety throughout the gallery space.”
March 7 through June 21. Weekdays only, generally.
