Julia Porcari: Turning Back a Page
In Turning Back a Page, artist Julia Porcari creates small watercolor paintings on retired library cards to echo the stories the cards point to. Growing up with a librarian for a mother, along with earning a bachelor鈥檚 in literature, Porcari has long been exposed to literary works, where she draws much of her creative inspiration. As libraries advance to the digital age, systems built to organize the diverse types of literature a library holds have become redundant. This exhibition serves as a look back at storytelling and kept knowledge.
