This exhibition highlighted the work of painter, Philip Juras. Juras recreates Southern U. S. wilderness before European settlement. This exhibition acquainted viewers with many of the important and imperiled ecosystems that remain in the South today—remnant natural communities that benefit from greater public awareness. Juras, a native of Augusta and a graduate of the University of Georgia (where he earned a BFA in drawing and painting and a master’s degree in landscape architecture), lives and works in Athens, Georgia.
