The Subtle Art Exhibition featuring Dayna Haynie and Sarah Jones

Monday April 30, 2012 between 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm Dayna Haynie and Sarah Jones will be featuring a collection of their fabric, paper, print and sculptural works at the LSU AgCenter and Rural Life Museum.


So why should you go to this event?

For starters, it is featuring two very talented artists who have found that artistic expression is the best way they can convey their meaning. I can contest to this, or at least I can for Dayna Haynie who has always had a nach for creativity. I know this because we attended the same high school and although we were never scheduled to have art at the same time, we both contributed to the art show at the end of the semester where we could view each other's works. Currently, Dayna is at the brink of graduation. She will finish with a degree in both Art with a concentration in sculpture and Psychology.  Her body of work over these past four years has been extremely experimental and innovative. 

As for Sarah Jones, I have not personally met her but have been corresponding with her via facebook. When I inquired about her artistic process and what her works are trying to achieve, she had this to say,

"I am an artist because I really don't think I know how to be any other way. Expression has always 

been something that was hard for me; that is until I become comfortable as an artist. I have always been 

drawn to soft visually tactile works, so now that is one of the things I strive for. My hope is that people 

will feel this odd pull to place their hands on my work-a strange, sort of taboo reaction in a gallery 

space, but for me entirely necessary. I am a print maker, a papermaker and a lover of lace and wax. I 

feel like using all of the senses when interacting with art is important." 


When asked why people should attend this event she further added:

"People should attend Subtle Rush so they too can experience a new alternative to the traditional art 

show; Interacting with not only a lovely group of people but lovely art as well!"


Overall, this should be a really exciting event! There will be free food, free drinks and a continuum of fun waiting for you at the door! So go out and support Baton Rouge's local artist!
