Northern Clay Center & Minneapolis
Institute of Arts
September 25-
November 8, 2009

This exhibition examined Patti Warashina exploration of the human figure which has been an absorbing visual fascination in her work. She uses the figure in voyeuristic situations in which irony, humor, and absurdities portray human behavior as a relief from society’s pressure and frustrations on mankind. At times, the figure is used in complex arrangements so that it will be seethingly alive.
