Artists have the capacity to perceive the world in ways rarely seen, but also have the responsibility for making work that encourages us to open up and reconnect with one another.

BALTIMORE--Memory Forms, an exhibition of new works from Evan La Londe '03 '04 (B.F.A. in general fine arts, M.A. in Teaching), will be mounted Jan. 29-Feb. 27 at School 33 Art Center (1427 Light St.) in the Members' Gallery. This solo show is part of the Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts-sponsored juried competition for Lotta Art, named Best in Show.

"Landscapes exist both internally and externally. They are constructed not only from tangible objects and surfaces, but also from intangible elements given form by emotion, association and memory," La Londe said. "I am interested in the relationship between these two landscapes, especially in the moments they intersect and merge. ... Through photography, drawing, sculpture and installation, I am exploring, finding and creating these moments."
