A special artist reception will be held on January 28 from 3:30-5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The multi-media exhibit will focus on the power of documentation and its capacity to retain what is otherwise lost. Central to the display is a 3D-printed replica of the artist\u2019s skull, created using a digital replication of a medical CT scan. This particular piece, which connotes the infamous skull in Shakespeare\u2019s Hamlet, inspired the exhibit\u2019s title.<\/p>\n<p>In displaying her work, Cooney intends to bring to light the subtle beauty of change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope to offer the viewer a sense of the underlying beauty that resides even in the chaos of change, when viewed from a perspective of totality,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>A conceptual artist, Erin Cooney resides in California, where she develops works inspired by consciousness studies. She holds a degree in philosophy from the University of Notre Dame and a degree in graphic design from the Art Center College of Design. Her works have been displayed in cities ranging from Los Angeles to Melbourne.<\/p>\n<p>The Linda Hummel-Shea ArtSpace is located in the Harold Bentley Library on NECC\u2019s Haverhill campus, 100 Elliott Street. Open hours are Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday from 8 to 4:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibit is sponsored by the NECC Art Department and made possible through the generous support of the NECC Foundation, Inc.<\/p>\n<p>NECC offers an associate degree in General Studies: Art.
