Flora: A State of Whim by Leslie Jean Wengler

T

he exhibit's opening reception at NOMA Gallery was a beautiful success. “Flora, or fauna as we see it with the human eye, can often be left unnoticed for its unique beauty. This show is to embark the journeyman on a deeper path within the ordinary. I have always had an affinity similar to Alice in Wonderland; in a state of whimsical wonder surrounding these ornate objects. It is my hope that you will see the transcendence nature has to offer if we pause & take a closer inspection. Come take a journey with me down the “Rabbit hole.” If you must, to see what nature has always intended us too, if only we have the patience to pause - observe and appreciate. It truly is a world within its own of wonder & whim.” —Leslie Jean Wengler
