“Transplants,” an exhibit of work by visiting artist Jennifer Gunlock, opens to the public Feb. 13, with an opening reception and artist talk that day from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. in the Reese Bullen Gallery on the Cal Poly Humboldt campus in Arcata.

The exhibit will run through March 22. This is the third in a series of exhibitions hosted by the Reese Bullen Gallery as part of a national call for artists.

Gunlock, a Los Angeles-based artist, blends photography, decorative paper, colored pencil and digital collage into video animations “to reflect on the ever-present alteration of our wildlands due to human manipulation.”

Gunlock constructs landscapes marked by infrastructure: oil wells, cell phone towers disguised as trees and buildings for habitation.

A press release for the exhibit says, “The work comments on our direct human impact on the environment, also reflecting on Earth’s interminable shapeshifting over the long period of its existence.”

This exhibit was installed with the assistance of the Museum & Gallery Practices Course students under the instruction of Assistant Professor Eliseo Casiano.

The Reese Bullen Gallery is located in the Art Building, at the intersection of B Street and Laurel Drive, directly across from the Van Duzer Theatre. The gallery is open Wednesday and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The gallery is also open by appointment.
