 </figure>2020 Salina Biennial Artist Eileen Roscina is the new artist-in-residence at the Salina Art Center.She is creating an installation in the South Gallery, Tuesday through Sept. 5 that represents the loss of human contact and sense of security many have struggled with during the pandemic. Guests are welcome to visit the artist during installation.Her completed exhibition will be featured at the Salina Art Center, 242 South Santa Fe Avenue, from Sept. 2-Oct. 11. Gallery hours are Wednesday-Sunday from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is free, however donations are welcome. Masks are required by all visitors. Roscina is an artist, experimental filmmaker and naturalist currently living in Denver. Through biomimicry and the study of biophilia, her work examines human’s spiritual and social (dis)connection with nature and seeks to raise questions about realizing a radically different metaphoric mapping of time, space and our place in the world. Rocina is hosting a Cyanotype workshop from 2-4 p.m. Saturday at the Salina Art Center. Free registration is open online and group size is limited. A virtual artist talk is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Sept. 1 via Facebook Live.
