STRAIGHT FROM THE HE(ART)

Set the mood for art from Wyoming artist Connor Liljestrom. His original works explore themes inspired by the artist’s life in the Tetons, mythologies, Hollywood and pop culture, natural history, colonialism, and the canon of Western-centric art history. Working in oil and mixed oil media, his bold and large scale work demands attention, inspiring conversations, and entry into his solo exhibit, “The Last of The Old West.”
