Minneapolis, MN – In the 5th show of the Altered Esthetics Solo Exhibitions Program season, artist Michael Weatherly’s solo exhibition, “Figures and Faces”, opens Tuesday, July 15th at the Nomad World Pub in Minneapolis from 6-9pm. The event is free and open to the public.

Weatherly’s latest work is a series of prints featuring abstract figures and faces. He incorporates altered digital images, abstract figurative elements, with mixed media and traditional printmaking techniques to produce one of a kind prints on paper. Through these works, Weatherly tries to imprint imagery that reminds us of the world around us, emotions we may have felt, and of people we may have met.

Weatherly is a 1993 graduate of the University of Minnesota Morris with a BA in Art History and a minor in Studio Art. He has also been the recipient of several artist grants including the McKnight Foundation Artist Grant, and the Lake Regions Art Council’s Minnesota Legacy and Career Development grants.
