Exhibition Opening: Second Life
Step into a world where plastic comes alive.
Second Life, a bold and immersive exhibition by Artist-in-Residence Jodi Stuart, transforms the Old Masonic Hall Gallery into a playground of vibrant, anthropomorphic forms. Through Breck Create’s Precious Plastic Initiative, Stuart reimagines recycled plastics into exuberant, life-sized sculptures that twist, shimmer, and surprise at every turn.
Exploring the strange, elastic possibilities of this unconventional material, she invites visitors into a universe of color, texture, play, and wonder—culminating in a gallery experience that is equal parts joyful, uncanny, and awe-inspiring.
Jodi Stuart: Second Life exhibition opening reception will take place on Saturday, January 24, 2026, from 5-7 pm, with an Artist talk at 6 pm—a free event with lite bites, a cash bar, and music.
