SUMMARY:"All Stitched Up"
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled and honored to be showing my work “Prairie”  in “All Stitched Up”\nAn international juried book arts exhibition\nSeptember 3rd – December 11th\, 2019\nSeptember 14th – opening celebration\nCollins Memorial Library University of Puget Sound\, Tacoma\, WA \n \n \n \n“To stitch is to join together\, to mend\, or fasten as with stitches – to sew. To stitch is to bring together fabric\, paper\, wounds of the body\, or cultural divides. Stitching can be an act of healing\, hope\, practicality\, creativity\, and revolution. All Stitched Up recognizes and celebrates the work of book artists’ where stitching has become an integral part of the visual design. Curators Catherine Alice Michaelis\, Jane A. Carlin\, and Diana Weymar will jury the show and a print catalogue will be created. \nWe are particularly (but not solely) interested in works that showcase collaboration and focus on building a sense of shared community. That may include collaboration between two or more artists\, two or more communities\, or crowd-sourced projects. Sewing that joins people and ideas link us to historical social and political sewing circles from the abolitionist movement of the 1800s\, to the corporate resistant DIY movement kindled by the Riots Grrrls in the 1990s\, to the knitting collectives of today that focus on the anti-war\, pro-science\, and pro-choice movements. In addition\, you may draw inspiration from the embroidered books of the Victorian period\, the rise of needlecrafts during the Arts & Crafts period\, and family traditions of sewing by machine or hand stitching. \nThis exhibition will include pages from Diana Weymar’s Interwoven Stories project. This includes Refashioning Identity\, which was created by members of the Puget Sound community in 2016/17 as facilitated by Weymar.” —All Stitched Up \n

SUMMARY:"The Book as Art v.7.0: Wonders"
DESCRIPTION:I am honored to show my work\, “The Fall” in the upcoming exhibition: \nThe Book as Art v. 7.0: Wonders\nPresented by the Decatur Arts Alliance\nDecatur\, Georgia \nAugust 9–September 27\, 2019 \nThe Decatur Arts Alliance (DAA) presents the seventh edition of the juried exhibition of artists’ books\, The Book as Art\, August 9–September 27\, 2019. This edition will be installed once again at the Decatur Branch of the DeKalb County Public Library.  The show’s dates encompass the AJC-Decatur Book Festival\, which takes place each Labor Day weekend throughout the City of Decatur. The DAA will sponsor a festive opening on Friday\, August 23\, 2019. \n“A book begins as a small mass of material\, formed and pressed into life by ideas\, words\, and machines. A concept becomes thought\, becomes word\, becomes book\, becomes sculpture. From the tactile complexity of handmade paper\, to the alteration of existing volumes\, to a variety of other materials and concepts\, these objects\, in an increasingly digital world\, stubbornly survive. The objects in this exhibition will interpret the concept of the book and invite the viewer to look beyond the printed page to where word has become form.” \nThe Book as Art v. 7.0: Wonders’ location at the Decatur Branch of the DeKalb County Public Library is just off the Decatur Square\, ideally accessible to the more than 85\,000 attendees at the Festival as well as to visitors throughout the run of the show. \nView the catalog! \nThe Jurors: \nDenise Bookwalter works in a range of print media including traditional and digital processes\, artist’s books\, installations and dimensional prints.

She is an Associate Professor of Art at Florida State University where she teaches printmaking and is Area Head of the Printmaking Department.

DESCRIPTION:“FORMATION”: The Guild of Book Workers 2018-2019 Traveling Juried Exhibition is currently showing at UCLA! \nUniversity of California\, Los Angeles\nCharles E. Young Research Library Lobby Gallery\nLos Angeles\, CA\nMarch 15–May 25\, 2019\nI am extremely honored to have two pieces in FORMATION\, The Guild of Book Workers 2018-2019 traveling juried exhibition\, with a theme evoking a wide array of interpretations. \n“Simply defined by Merriam Webster as “an act of giving form or shape to something\,” ‘formation‘ can insinuate process\, history\, creation\, change\, beginnings\, an arrangement\, botany and landscape\, personal narratives and impersonal storytelling. As artists\, designers and craftspeople with our own histories that form us\, we also play a vital role in the formation of objects and experiences; pulp molded into paper\, paper folded into books\, books shelved into a library. \nWhat is the final product\, if not for the methods used to create it? What makes us into the artists we are? What pushes us to continue to create?” –FORMATION
