Northern Illinois University Art Museum-http://www.niu.edu/artmuseum NIU Art Museum Exhibition-Dec. 1 opening reception of “Stories From My Childhood,” a group show based on a national call for entry exploring both dark childhood experiences and somewhat humorous and quirky observations of life from a child’s perspective. Artists were asked to depict a transformative event that occurred during their childhood through visual media and text. The exhibition was then juried by NIU professors, sculptor Ben Stone and poet Amy Newman for awards. Though my work " When She became a Widow" did not receive an award but I am happy to receive these images from the exhibition reception with two jurors in front of my work! #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #niuartmuseum #drawings #salmaarastustudio https://www.instagram.com/p/CnQ5lbqryyr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
