​The exhibition, Vessel, includes the works of John Holdway, M. V. Moran, Alanna Risse, Rhonda Vanover and Brenda Whitehill Schlenker. The exhibition explores the wonders of the human body, while contending with its fragility. Experiences of illness, injury and healing, birth and aging, pleasure and suffering are examined through a range of media, including paintings, large scaled figurative drawings, photography and soft sculpture. The human body is the focus of each artist’s work through direct research and metaphor. The work is an interpretation of the complex system and structure of the human body. Varying materials and media are used to explain the relationships to the body, through both traditional and contemporary methods. ​
