May 20, 2024 - "Reclaimed Creations" Art Exhibit Opens Saturday, June 1st!

Green Bay, WI—May 20, 2024— The amazing sculptures of Sayaka Ganz will be shown at the Neville Public Museum from June 1 to September 29, 2024. Artist Sayaka Ganz utilizes reclaimed plastic objects such as discarded utensils. She describes her style as “3D impressionism.” Sculptures in the exhibition include recent installations of animals in motion which are rich in color and energy, and create an illusion of form.
Sayaka Ganz was born in Yokohama, Japan, and grew up living in Japan, Brazil, and Hong Kong. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Indiana University, Bloomington, and a Master of Fine Arts degree in sculpture from Bowling Green State University in Ohio.
About her work, the artist says, “My work is about perceiving harmony, even in situations that appear chaotic from the inside. When observing my sculptures up close, one might see gaps, holes and items being held on only by small points; step away, however, and the sculptures reveal the harmony created when the objects are aligned to the same general (but not identical) direction. Similarly, it is important to gain perspective by stepping back from current problems and look at the larger picture. Then one can perceive the beauty and patterns that exist.”
The Tour of Sayaka Ganz Reclaimed Creations is produced by David J. Wagner, L.L.C.,
David J. Wagner, Ph.D., Curator/Tour Director.
