The Placitas Community Library will showcase “The Eyes Have It,” an exhibition featuring works by multiple artists exploring expression through eyes, from Feb. 7 through March 5.

The show, displayed in the library’s Gracie Lee Community Room, includes photographs, prints, paintings and other media focused on eyes as conveyors of emotion and thought.

Artists were asked to use eyes as the primary element to express feelings and ideas, according to exhibition coordinator Margaret Bruch.
