Coker College’s Cecelia Coker Bell Gallery presents an exhibition by Linda McCune titled, “Structured Emotions,” with a reception, which is free and open to the public. The exhibition begins on Monday, August 28, 2017 at 7 p.m. and light refreshments will be served. McCune’s show will continue through September 22, 2017.

 

Linda McCune received her Bachelors Degree of Fine Art with an emphasis in painting from the University of Tennessee and received her Masters Degree of Fine Art with an emphasis in Drawing and Sculpture from the University of South Carolina. She is currently the Assistant Art Department Head at Greenville Technical College.

 

Linda McCune is exhibiting two different, but related series of works. The Stress Series and the Pit Series both present artworks that contain veiled emotional responses to unforeseen circumstances. Meaning is implied by the juxtaposition of images and sculptural materials. Small studies are drawn in preparation for the time-consuming larger works. The small studies, larger drawings, and sculptural works demonstrate that visual images can reflect a complexity of emotional states.

 

The Cecelia Coker Bell Gallery is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday, while classes are in session, and is located in the Gladys C Fort Art Building on the campus of Coker College, Hartsville, S.C. Parking entrance, for the art building, is directly across from 306 E. Home Ave. For more information, contact exhibition director Ashley Gillespie at 843-383-8156 or .
