Elizabeth Carls

Reader’s Art 12: Longing for Home South Minneapolis artist Elizabeth Carls has a deep love of literature that, over the years has expressed itself in richly layered, experimental letterpress books. While the love of narrative and the history of the book remain. Lately she has been drawn to more wordless forms, using mixed media to create mutable experiences of story.

Changing Landscapes is a series of 4 one-of-a-kind mixed media works designed to engage their audience and encourage physical interaction between the viewer and the piece. On the surface the idea is simple. You can change the landscape. On another level, Changing Landscapes presents an un-sequenced narrative. A narrative about our individual sense of place and the ephemeral nature of the world we live in.

Susan Hensel Gallery

The focus of Susan Hensel Gallery is on compelling objects, meaningful use of materials, and engaging sculpture. It is a gallery where experimental ideas and works of the hand join to create unique sensory experiences. Opened September 10th, 2004 Susan Hensel Gallery is a gallery/ workspace presenting 5-6 shows per year in an intimate space, with hardwood floors and high tin ceilings. In 2013 the interior space reverted to a working studio for Susan Hensel where she continues to work on small and largescale artwork that engages both sculptural and cultural space.
