KENOSHA, Wis. â Carthage College presents the V Crushable art exhibit. Noah Kasianiâs sculptures are a testament to high fashion.

The opening reception for the V Crushable art exhibit will be on Thursday, February 10, from 3:30 to 6:30p. m.
V Crushable is a selection of sculptures and paintings created by Noah Kashiani and Kelly Reaves. Kashianiâs sculptures are crafted from secondhand clothing collected from thrift stores throughout Chicago. His current works are soft objects, hardened through a crystallization process.The materials pay respect to objects of a low value, addressing the significance of materialism and alluding to the relentless desire generated by a late-stage capitalism. Kelly Reavesâ paintings materialize through a hyperactive inner dialog and a fascination in the natural world. The paintings are process-driven, a culmination of meditation, simulating and warping three-dimensional space. V Crushable is on exhibit at the H. F. Johnson Gallery from Tuesday, February 8 to Friday, March 11, 2022. The gallery is open from noon to 5 p.m. every Tuesday through Friday. Extended hours are available on Thursdays from 5-8pm. Additionally, the gallery will be open Saturdays from 1-4pm. All art exhibits are free and open to the public.
