At Your Service

Niki Johnson and I have been collaborating on a curatorial adventure for the past year which has manifested into the exhibition At Your Service. This exhibition examines the cultural and social significance of the plate as it is interpreted through the work of six artists (Niki and myself included).



The opening reception for the show was last night at the Overture Center for the Arts in Madison and we had a really great turnout and many a kudos.

Take a look at the exhibition website (link below) to see images of the artwork, read essays by contributing writers, and learn more about the amazing community (like my ever-wonderful parents!) that helped make this project a reality.

Also, we have some lovely plate-themed jewelry and an exhibition catalogue for sale! Who doesn't love a good souvenir?!

Niki has done an incredible job putting this site together and has been such an energetic and positive force to work with. 




And wait, there's more...!

Here is a link to a little video that Jim Escalante put together of me setting up my piece, Light and Shadow, in his studio:
