Samples of artworks on display:

Eleven white horizontal features trace across this jet black piece that is very tall compared to its width. The features are reminiscent of sound waves, diminishing from the top highest to the most muted on the bottom wave.

A black cube in which three faces are visible. The cube itself is black, but there are square and rectangular cutouts in the surface through which light is shining. The artwork that the rectangular features form does not immediately look figurative, but evokes imagination of what the art could represent.

On the ground is a variety of media such as mulch, sphagnum moss, sand, and gravel. White lines of sand snake through the piece, and connect with lines on a vertical printed portion of the piece. This image only shows a portion of the artwork.
