Even without knowing the name of the piece, the figure represented there looks like a mythological personage, a character freighted with symbols. It’s there in the decorations on her boots, and the way she walks through and astride the town at the same time. It’s there in the way she holds a building in her hand. In the artist’s style, she could be a giant, holding an actual building; she could also be showing us the vision she has in her head. Or maybe it’s a little bit of both.
The Architect is one of the prints on display at a solo show of art by the New Haven-based visual artist and musician Shula Weinstein, running now at Never Ending Books through July 30.
