“Paint for a Purpose”
S.C. Aqaurium
Sep. 1, 2024 - May. 31, 2016
Laura Palermo is a young artist who has turned to art activism as a form of aesthetic resolution for wildlife conservation.
Using acrylic on canvas, Palermo captures the nuance and spirit of her subjects. Many of her paintings depict patients in the Sea Turtle Hospital that she has observed at the Aquarium to create detailed and accurate representations of the species.
Palermo’s passion for marine conservation drives her partnership with the South Carolina Aquarium, and her artwork will be available for purchase with a portion of proceeds benefiting the Aquarium’s conservation programs. Paintings for a Purpose is included with Aquarium admission.
