It’s not everyday that you have
a world-renowned artist on the
Clackamas Community College’s
campus, but that is what hap­
pened last Thursday. Fernanda
D ’Agostino, a Portland-based artist
known around the world for her
mixed-media art is currently being
shown in the Alexander Gallery.
D ’Agostino, who has accumulat­
ed many awards during her 30-year
career, teamed up with Marylhurst
University for The Clackamas
County Cultural Coalition grant.
Under the grant, D ’Agostino agreed
to do some work at CCC.
This instillation, called “On
Screen: Fernanda D ’Agostino:
Single Channel "Videos 2007-2013,”
depicts five videos creatively con­
nected together on a constant loop,
projected onto an Alexander Gallery
wall. Her work draws influence
from science, propaganda, lamenta­
tions and her own personal life. The
videos explore all that you wouldn’t
see with the naked eye.
