A year and a half after Hurricane Katrina slammed into the gulf coast states, residents are still coping with the devastation and subsequent rebuilding. Naturally, artwork emanating from the area has begun to reflect these issues and struggles. Thus, Found Gallery curator Jonny Coleman, himself a New Orleans native, has gathered various pieces of art from gulf coast artists for a show entitled “Displaced.”
“Displaced” will present several perspectives on the state of the region following Katrina. Some works celebrate the rebuilding process, reflecting on the natural beauty of the area and the chance to start anew. Other works are more somber, nostalgic for a time and a life now lost completely.
A portion of the proceeds from any art sold will go be donated to benefit Hurricane Katrina survivors.
