Into the Open

Online Exhibit Archive

To bring something into the open means it is made public, not subject to concealment or obfuscation. The exhibition, Into the Open, intends to do just that; to make more visible the diverse and formidable work of Detroit-area artists, Mariam Ezzat, Mara Magyarosi-Laytner, Priscilla Phifer, Heloisa Pomfret, Alice Smith, Mandisa Smith, and Jessica Wildman Katz. The varied art and design elements co-mingle via both 2D and 3D work, presenting a rich tapestry of talent and craftsmanship.
