Type of Event: Artist Lecture
This was a very interesting and exciting event to attend. She truly cares about her work, having so much meaning and thought into all of her projects. I love that through her 30 years of creating art, she has explored many different materials, ranging from altercations of old photos to needle point art. I found that her process of experimentation with the needlepoint canvas by adding layers of paint, cutting it, and stacking multiple layers reminds me of science projects. It incorporates testing different methods out and highlights the intersectionality of art’s nuances, and also the meticulous complexity of the sciences.
