Abstract paintings and crocheted sculptures by emerging artist, Victoria Hemminghaus. Victoria, a recent immigrant to the US from the UK, only recently realized she was an artist. Long winters of cozy hibernation whilst homesteading in rural Missouri allowed her to tap into her creative vein.
A surprise to her, no surprise to her close friends, she now makes art everyday.

Ceramic artist Kim Caisse makes friends: these are clay creatures of her own making, utilizing materials and inspiration found in her local surroundings in Hannibal, Missouri. Kim's friends inhabit shadowboxes, each with their own miniature world, shaped and influenced by many walks in nearby abandoned industrial spaces slowly decaying back into wilderness.
