The South Texas College Library Art Gallery is preparing for its newest exhibit “Burning Flowers” featuring works by local photographer Errol Hodgson. The exhibit opens Monday, March 2, 2015, and will be on view through May 8, 2015, at the South Texas College Technology Campus Library. In addition, Hodgson will conduct an artist lecture on Thursday, March 5, 2015, at 6:00 p.m. at the Technology Campus, Bldg. A, Room 179. The South Texas College Technology Campus is located at 3700 W. Military Hwy. in McAllen. Admission to the exhibit and artist lecture is free and open to the public.
In this exhibit, Hodgson focuses on his interpretation of flowers. “To me, flowers represent the beginning of loving relationships and the ending of life,” said Hodgson.
“Those who visit the exhibit will be able to use their imagination,” said South Texas College Library Specialist Maximilian Garcia. “The public is invited to do the same with “Burning Flowers” at the Technology Campus Art Gallery.”
Originally from New York, Hodgson moved to the Rio Grande Valley in 2010. In 2013, he earned an associate’s degree in computer maintenance from South Texas College.
The South Texas College Library Art Gallery exhibits regional, national and international artwork, explores new visions and theories of creativity and introduces innovative artistic expressions to the South Texas region.
