LISTEN, collage works by Theresa Heinz. Opening Reception, Friday, May 18, 6-8pm.
Art on Main Gallery, 100 West Main Street, Allegany, NY. Exhibit runs May 18 through June 29.
A career in public school teaching has provided Heinz the emotional motivation to create this body of collage work. Through images and words, she expresses the victimization of children. The archetypes of broken dolls and time serve as metaphors for the abuse, neglect and maltreatment of children and the denial of a deservedly joyous, carefree childhood.
