SOUTH ORANGE, NJ — The juxtaposition of inner life and outer reality is explored in Dorothy Anderson Wasserman’s photography exhibit on view Dec. 15 through Feb. 23 in the Herb & Milly Iris Gallery at the South Orange Performing Arts Center, 1 SOPAC Way, South Orange. A free opening reception on Saturday, Dec. 17, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. will celebrate the new exhibit and allow the public to enjoy refreshments while they browse the intricacies of the photo collages.
“The first time I saw Ms. Wasserman’s work, I was immediately drawn into her fictitious and non-fictitious narratives so intricately woven into a mosaic,” gallery curator Jeremy Moss said in a press release. “Each piece has its own compelling story.”
Wasserman’s work takes the viewer on a journey of surrealist visual narratives that ask you to be a participant in the story as you are confronted with images that provoke questions and encourage discussion. Wasserman’s photographs are cut, rearranged and then pieced together in layers of chaos and clarity.
The Herb & Milly Iris Gallery is open Mondays through Saturdays from noon to 6 p.m. and for two hours prior to SOPAC performances. The artwork on display is for sale, unless otherwise noted, with partial proceeds supporting SOPAC.
