Event Description

Atsuko Tajima creates paintings on kiln-formed glass, inspired by a child-like desire to preserve paintings in the air. The spatial presence and mysterious forms cast reflections of light and shadow. Elusive details, enabled by a three-dimensional surface and a variety of pigments, appear and hide within each piece. The artist’s process renders paintings that appear to glow as if they were lit from within. A recent loss inspired Tajima to view her art as a healing tool and a reminder of life’s preciousness. She has recently focused on capturing various mental transformations through her artwork, exhibiting in hospitals, schools and art centers. Exhibition hours are Tues., 10am-7pm; Wed. thru Fri., 10am–5pm; and Sat., 11am-2pm. For more info, 614/889-7444 or www.dublinarts.org.

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
