Saint Meinrad Archabbey Library Gallery is hosting an exhibit of ceramics, “The Art and Craft of Todd Matteson,” which runs until February 29, 2024.

Todd Matteson of Evansville, IN, is inspired by the traditional designs of Native American pottery, blankets, and tribal tattoos. His designs transform these motifs into a more personal expression by incorporating elements from his story and journeys. He considers his work to be a contemporary hybrid with a sacred meaning tattooed onto the vessel. Included in the show are the traditional forms of platters and jars, along with the more idiosyncratic shapes.

For library hours, call 812-357-6401 or 800-987-7311, or visit the Archabbey Library’s website: https://www.saintmeinrad.edu/library/library-hours/.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. Those wishing to view the exhibit may want to arrive at least 30 minutes before closing time.
