Mokah Art Gallery presents: Gisela-Heidi Strunck
September 23 – October 23, 2010
Reception October 9, 6-10pm as part of the 2010 Fall D.E.E. P. ArtWalk
The recent sculptures of Gisela-Heidi Strunck evoke a sense of spiritual passage through merging fully saturated colors and contrasting tactile forms. The structural elements of her work are inspired by architectural and ornamental components observed from her travels to India. Repetition of identical forms and symmetrical configurations connect the work to the many cultures that have influenced her in the past.
Due to brain surgery in 2003, Gisela-Heidi Strunck lost her eyesight as well as sense of smell and taste changing her life and art substantially. With assistance from her husband, Artist Juergen Strunck, Gisela-Heidi Strunck continues to convey her love of art.
Gisela-Heidi Strunck’s work is on view at the Mokah Art Gallery September 23 through October 23 with a reception on Saturday, October 9th from 6 -10pm.
Mokah Art Gallery, an extension of Life in Deep Ellum, serves to promote culture and art in Deep Ellum and surrounding communities. At the Cultural Center, Mokah Art Gallery exhibitions feature contemporary art of local artists from the experimental, the emerging, and the established.
