Jeremiah Ibarra’s “Put on Airs,’’ 2021 Assemblage is part of an exhibit that opens Saturday, Sept. 10, at UNO’s St. Claude Gallery.

The UNO St. Claude Gallery in New Orleans presents “A Ticker and a Toddler Bite,” an exhibition by UNO instructor Jeremiah Ibarra that opens Saturday, Sept. 10.

Ibarra is currently teaching sculpture in the Fine Arts Department and brings to UNO a passion for clay in a contemporary art setting. Ibarra's work rocks between a focus on the seemingly ordinary and the overtly familiar. His exhibition “A Ticker and a Toddler Bite,” addresses ideas of balance, time, childhood and community as a way to shed light on the fleeting and commonplace.

An opening reception will be held Saturday from 6-9 p.m. at the UNO St. Claude Gallery, 2429 St. Claude Avenue. Regular gallery hours are Saturdays and Sundays, noon to 5 p.m. The exhibit will be displayed until Nov. 5.
