Beck Baumann, “Fun and games”

Beck Baumann is a mixed media artist with a special focus on sequins who makes her home in Reno.

Baumann’s whimsical sequin sculptures draw from childhood memories and a joyful nostalgia. The word that most often comes to mind is fun. She likes to combine unexpected elements from everyday objects to create things never seen before. Her inspiration comes from that childhood place when the world felt strange, scary, and full of wonder.

The artwork is on display in the E.L. Wiegand Gallery, Oats Park Art Center through May 5. An artist talk and reception is May 3 from 5-7 p.m. The talk begins at 5:30 p.m.
