      <image:title>News - Seeing Clearly Now</image:title>
      <image:caption>Curated by Christopher Selleck at Edward J. and Helen Jane Morrison Gallery at the University of Minnesota Morris. Seeing Clearly Now features artists Melissa Borman, Jorge Ariel Escobar, A.K. Garski, Jacob Aaron Schroeder, and Alonzo Pantoja.   These five artists were selected to highlight aspects of queer identity through personal exploration of histories, mediums, and encounters with others and themselves. Approaches to craft and execution vary within these works, yet consistently reveal intentional and significant choices of material and presentation. These artists deftly uncover facets of their own identity and then share those new findings and discoveries with the viewer.</image:caption>
