Palimpsest, an exhibition of recent works by art and design seniors Kate Nakamura and Kyle Wilhelm, opens at 6 p.m. tonight at 1060 Osos St.
Nakamura’s work addresses the effects of gender roles and age on identity and social standing. Greatly influenced by four years of glassblowing experience, she recently turned her emphasis to mixed media sculpture.

The women who taught the world about sex and fashion made a successful big-screen debut, proving that relationship drama is still a worthy investment for any movie studio.
