Opening May 3, Geilman’s show Works of Translation is a multi piece show featuring photos of her incredible works of art. From worksoftranslation.com:

This show is about transmission, recontextualization, and symbolic meaning—in essence, they are works of translation. I am fascinated with objects, their history and the meaning they imbue, especially when that meaning changes once placed within a different context. This show explores my faith and my relationship to my faith using the tools of art historical composition and object placement.

Below is a list of the works in the show with inspiration sources tied to the pieces. The commentary is not exhaustive in that I want you, the viewer to have space to make your own connections and meaning with the pieces.
