Exhibitions

In Invasive Blooms, artist Layo Bright uses sculpture to delve into themes of time, feminism, migration, and the African diaspora. Her practice employs blown, fused, and cast glass processes, along with mixed media, such as  textiles, wood, and ceramics, to engage ideas about individual and community identity. 

This exhibition features recent and new works, including the debut of an hourglass sculpture that marks the passage of time and Bloom portraits created in collaboration with the Montclair State University community. These portraits incorporate casts of faces of students, faculty, and staff, accompanied by their migration stories and reflections on identity, traditions, beliefs, and empowerment.
