Atrium Artspace proudly presents “Nocturnal Reflection”, a solo exhibition by Baltimore-based mixed media artist Rieko Chacey on view from June 28 through July 26 that expresses the artist’s life experience as an educator, artist, and immigrant. “Nocturnal Reflection” transports the viewer into the quiet solitude and creative freedom found late at night.

Born in Tochigi, Japan, the artist moved to the United States at age 18 to study fine art at Towson University.  Chacey has a professional background in graphic design, motion design, video editing, interactive design and illustration. While working full-time as a professional designer, she studied in the Master of Fine Arts program at University of Baltimore. Her works have been exhibited at Brentwood Arts Exchange, SNF Parkway Theater, Baltimore Visitor Center, NYC Big Screen Plaza, the Asian Arts and Culture Center, and Kawasaki City’s Centennial Anniversary Concert in Japan. Now teaching animation, interactive media, and design at Towson University, Rieko Chacey spends her nighttime hours creating deeply personal multimedia artworks from a huge variety of materials and processes. The result is brought to light in Nocturnal Reflection.
