Two artists from out of town, Bonnie Hull of Salem, Oregon, and Lisa Culjis of Sacramento, are showing work at Partners Gallery. Culjis makes hand-cut collages and assemblages using her evolving collection of old photographs, vintage ephemera, discarded books, and small found objects to create a poetic narrative of layered imagery revealing the inner life of her subjects.

Through her drawings and paintings, Hull creates a rich interwoven narrative about life, art, and the significance of looking closely at what surrounds us. Everyday objects and human connections are fodder for Hull's art practice rooted in themes of domesticity, memory, and the mythology of the personal.

Come see the show! Second Saturday opening is March 8th, 5 to 7 pm. and the show is up from Thursday March 6th through Sunday April 6th. Gallery hours are Thursday through Monday, 11 am to 5 pm. Partners Gallery is located at 45062 Ukiah Street in Mendocino.
