EXHIBIT STATEMENT
The Monmouth Museum is proud to announce a solo exhibition in our Nilson Gallery showing the works from talented artist Carol Nussbaum. This show features Carol’s original photographs, inviting viewers to view familiar objects in an original way, through Carol’s mandala or circular designed fine art. Each image offers the eye an adventure in harmony, balance, depth, contrast and symmetry. Found in every culture and faith, a mandala is structured around a unifying center and thought to represent both wholeness and the universe.
​
Carol’s graphic design experience and advertising background provided the perfect segue for her as she began to transform her original photographs into digital art. “What’s seen with the eye can, with love and care, be transformed to suggest a period of time or even a movement in the art world,” Nussbaum notes. She adds, “Weaving elements of my travel photographs or even a trip to a toy store into an intricate mandala brings a new mood to the experience.”






ABOUT CAROL NUSSBAUM
Nussbaum is a digital photographer who “paints” with her photographed images creating abstracts while maintaining, color, line, and form. The facts are simple: Carol attended Skidmore College where she studied both fine art and photography. Carol graduated with honors and moved to NYC, where she won awards for print and television commercials as an art director in the advertising world.
Art has always been central to Carol’s core. When her children were small, it was as if no single medium of art could contain her. Children’s book illustrator, mural painter, custom stationery designer, magazine artist–-to name a few
