An exhibition of artwork, titled “flotsam and jetsam,â€� by local artist Alex Rheault will be on display at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½â€™s Biddeford Campus Center from October 2 to November 8.

The exhibition is composed of a series of paintings that pair objects from observed references with objects from imagined references. Unresolved and somewhat cryptic, the paintings and drawings reflect incompleteness and constant change. “Life is a cycling of discarded and salvaged loot, fleeting moments, and residual sensations,� the artist noted.

Rheault is a local artist and writer, originally from Washington, D.C. She is an adjunct assistant lecturer in the Âé¶¹´«Ã½â€™s Department of Creative and Fine Arts, where she teaches art and design fundamentals in 2D, 3D, and Drawing and Design courses.

Rheault is the founder of “drawing room,� which she describes as “a roving collaboration in which drawing and community collide.� She also curates throughout the region.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. Âé¶¹´«Ã½â€™s Campus Center is located at 11 Hills Beach Road, Biddeford, Maine. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. For more information, contact Diane Noble by email or phone (207-284-6394).
