Mari Richards’ “Consumed” focuses on individual, hand-held moments of assimilation – all those little bits and pieces a person accumulates over time. The artist combines fleshy plastics and polymers – manmade representations of man-made identities – with discarded everyday objects to create her work.
The John D. MacArthur Campus Library’s hours are Sundays from 12:30 to 11 p.m.; Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 11 p.m.; Fridays from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.
