Rose Hendrickson Showcases Sculpture Works at Palmer Museum

exhibition · 2026-03-15

Artist Rose Hendrickson presented seven sculptural pieces at the Palmer Museum as part of its Artist of the Week program on May 22, 2020. The exhibition features student work created during her BFA studies at the University of Alaska Anchorage over the previous 18 months. The collection includes five ceramic works, one steel piece, and one mixed-media construction combining wood and aluminum. Hendrickson, who has over four decades of artistic practice, recently shifted from two-dimensional media to focus on three-dimensional sculpture. The works reflect her exploration of spatial composition and material transformation, with one large piece addressing pandemic experiences through textual elements. The exhibition remains accessible through the museum's online gallery and accompanying interview materials.
