EUGENE, Ore.—The Lane Community College Art Gallery is proud to present “Our Dark-Side is the Softest Place,” an exhibition featuring work from national artist Heather Bal. Bal works in multiple mediums with this current exhibition featuring mixed media including paper, graphite drawings and ceramic installation.

Artist Statement on “Our Dark-Side is the Softest Place”—
Story is as a space in which we enter. 
It is a phenomenon or root system woven throughout culture.
It is a space constructed for the purpose of self-reflection.  
It is a place for us to explore our multi-faceted identity.  
I am a portrait artist. 
This is my portrait of a cause and effect story.

This exhibition runs from April 2-26.  The gallery will host an artist’s talk and reception on Wednesday, April 11 beginning at 2:00 p.m.

The Lane Community College Art Gallery is located in Building 11, LCC main campus, 4000 E. 30th Ave., Eugene. The gallery features main and sister exhibit areas. Hours are Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free. For details call (541) 463-5419.
