Description: The first exhibit in Tower Hill Botanic Garden's "Art in the Garden" 2008 Exhibition Series opens on Tuesday, May 13 with the hauntingly beautiful photographs taken by Dominick Marcigliano, and the sensually detailed sculptures created by Arlene Fins.

Dominick Marcigliano is a photographer whose current portfolio features photographs of art and architecture; or as the artist terms it "objects people see everyday but may not notice." His work has been exhibited at ArtsWorcester and other venues. Marcigliano is the Executive Director of the East Side Community Development Corporation in Worcester, and a past recipient of the Greater Worcester Community Foundation's Renaissance Award.

Complementing the photographic essay is the work of Arlene Fins, a sculptor whose the hand-wrought bronze figures are emotive masterpieces. Fins, a resident of Acton, Mass., has an extensive education in the arts, including a long career as an illustrator and a degree in Theater Arts & Music. "I love to create sculptures that express something of the human condition," says Fins, "For me, each piece is an exploration of human energy, character, and feelings...I want to find the right gesture, tilt of the head, facial expression that will reveal what person the sculpture was meant to be." Her work has been exhibited at the DeCordova Museum, the Cape Cod Art Association National Exhibition, the New England Sculptors Association, and many other venues.
