Prince George artist Korene Kidd gravitated towards three dimensional expression at an early age, her work growing out of her years of experience as a costume designer. Since 2000 she has been the costume designer for over 30 play and performances. Although her pieces remain "functional art", she has allowed herself the freedom of self expression, creating a mood with materials, colour and accessories.

Each one of the costumes represent the many different personas of woman. Korene feels her works are essentially self portraits in which she explores the various parts of her own personality; femininity and spirituality; the warrior, the temptress. Not just the "nice" ones, the ones that investigate all the themes that define the idea of woman.

On Tuesday, February 2, Korene's exhibit "Woman Presentation #4 - A Celebration of Fashion and the Female Form" will be opening at the Dawson Creek Art Gallery at 7pm. Korene will be doing a artist's talk at that time which will be aimed at costume design for drama productions.

Refreshments will be served and everyone is invited to attend.

I love Korene!! Beautiful costumes (I've had the privilege of wearing a few of them)! One question, though - is the opening on TUES the 2nd or WED the 3rd?
