EXHIBITIONISTA: INTERPLAY with the SDA
I am thrilled to participate in INTERPLAY, organized by the SDA!
Interplay presents works that explore parallels, synergies, or tensions between two or more ideas. Artworks may examine connections between seemingly unrelated concepts, map relationships between maker and materials, or reflect interactions between maker and tools. Works employ traditional, interdisciplinary, or collaborative methodologies.
Honoring the diverse range of approaches within fiber art and highlighting the rich tapestry of multicultural links, Interplay looks toward a future informed by the past, bringing together ideas for fresh reflection, reinterpretation, and deeper understanding.

EXHIBITIONISTA: “Evidence of Joy” at Intersect Arts Center
Says curator April Parvitz:, "When I look at the current world of art, I feel like I see a lot of evidence of many inspiring things, but not always so much joy. I know in my own art practice, I am often fueled by loud palpable emotions like pain and confusion. Perhaps if I begin practicing using joy as fuel, I will begin to do it more habitually. Perhaps if we practice seeing joy more we can become habitual joy detectives.
Show me all the joy! I want to see and share artwork made in joy, artwork made upon discovering evidence of joy, and work that is just pure joy to look at! "
