The New Exhibit

On the first floor of my building we have an exhibit space for different pieces of art. Today was the opening of the latest exhibit and I joined my coworker Bob and his wife, Sharon, in checking out the new art. As usual, there was food and wine and the artists stopped by to give a deeper insight into their work. For this exhibit they brought up five artists from the Richmond area. What made these artists special is that they are also scientists and they have used their art as an extension of their science. My favorite piece was a the Möbius strip made from cherry wood. Unfortunately that wasn't for sale but the other Möbius strip with the stripes was selling for $500. I didn't think it was worth it, but what do I know. Bob and Sharon really seemed to enjoy themselves. I can't wait till the next exhibit, but in the meanwhile I'll have to stop by this one a few more times.
