Kathy Swan creates functional stoneware pieces with botanical motifs. In Multiple Dimensions, she combines bittersweet vine handles and some of Stier’s photographs with her hand-painted ceramic surfaces to create varied layers of visual and tactile texture.

John Stier's photographs do not follow any particular theme. Rather, they are a selection of some of his favorite images from various travels. The photographs include locations from as far away as Hawaii and Australia but also as close as his back yard in Columbia. The collection includes flora and fauna, city scenes, landscapes and some natural “abstracts.”

Over 20 other artists are on display at Artists' Gallery.
