The first Boston-area solo exhibition of prints and paintings by Connecticut artist Laurie Sloan will be featured at Simmons College's Trustman Art Gallery during the month of September.

Sloan's images suggest biological events which playfully convey the enigmatic complexities of organic processes and the ambiguities of time. The artist describes her work as encompassing "mutation, evolution, repulsion, attraction, familiarity, strangeness, deterioration and the potential for new existence."
