“Arc of Life/Ark of Bones,” is a two-part installation that showcases the artist Walter Hood's duality and latest work. 

Spread across a series of 10 paintings, Hood portrays scenes from the first decade of his life in “Arc of Life,” painting figures playing, running, praying or resting. “It's pretty amazing how memory can be lucid,” Hood said. “Do I want to grab pictures of my father and paint from that? Or do I want just those figures to come out? And it's probably the latter. I'm not looking to be representational as far as through image, but it is the spaces that these paintings I'm beginning to depict."
