Oliver and Lucha
March 6 - 27, 2010
Oliver was born Decatur, GA and lived there until June of 2009. She has
since moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Art has always been a huge part in
Oliver’s life with influences such as Dr. Seuss, Shel Silverstein, Jim
Henson, Egon Schiele and her grandmother Marla Holcomb. Today, she
works in illustration, painting, printmaking, bookbinding, and creating
puppets.
Lucha Rodriguez was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela. She
earned her BFA in Graphic Design from The Art Institute of Atlanta in
2006. She is currently a MFA candidate in Printmaking at The Savannah
College of Art and Design Atlanta. Rodriguez’s print work has been
shown in Mexico, India, France and the United States. She has
produced various “pink projects” ranging from etchings, monoprints,
serigraphies, to immersive surreal environments. Rodriguez develops
series of organ inspired “Creaturettes” which expand into her own
extravagant symbolism related to the body as an internal space.
