Corning Fine Arts is proud to present the work of Amy Haney in the exhibition Maritime.
The exhibition continues through Thursday September 30, 2010
Artist Statement:
Making artworks based on sea life over the past year has been educational and continuously inspiring. I find a delicacy and strength in fragile earth collectibles. Like any Midwesterner, I have collected and marveled over the varieties of shells found at visited beaches. There is a duality of power and weakness in these creatures. Like a portrait of the sea, I’m researching, collecting and documenting its existence.
