Ms. Head, a May graduate with a BFA in sculpture, is showing freestanding sculptural forms involving juxtapositions of ceramics, wood, metal, and fiber; freestanding monolithic welded steel non-objective forms; relief sculpture combining wood, ceramics, metal, fiber, and found object materials, some of which are displayed in multi-paneled presentations; plus lithographic original prints in the form of still life and non-objective images.
