Andrea Merrell: Measure of Man May 1, 2008

Idaho artist Andrea Merrell has worked for three decades creating drawings, sculpture and mixed media works based on sacred geometry. Merrell's work is contemplative, understated and thought-provoking. In studies of color value and geometric form, she develops an installation of relationships and juxtapositions. Merrell's exhibition'Measure of Man' is inspired by the 14th-century artist Giotto whose imagery told the story of life, not only through the human presence and interaction in content, but also in composition, line, soft colors, and through the use of empty spaces and architectural structure.
