While there, she studied thousands of different paintings, and came back with 86 works. None of these pieces have ever left Scotland. To compliment the exhibit, many educational events will also be offered to students. Christopher Allan, retired director of the Hunterian, and Amy Worthen, a Des Moines art historian and contemporary printmaker, will give lectures. They will be in Ames for a month to speak to both students and the public about the exhibit.
King specializes in glass sculpting.
Some pieces on display are 3-D models, digitized prints and a stainless screen. Fawn describes the screen as large and striking. Glass squares suspended by cables will also be on display. In the suspended pieces the reflecting colors change with the season and the time of day. King is technical but accessible.
