Program Description

Event Details

Join artist Jamie Earnest for a fabric collage workshop designed to challenge how you think about touch, texture, and imagery. Think through compositions and imagery by cutting rather than drawing or painting to create a one of a kind work of art. All supplies provided.

Jamie Earnest completed her BFA at Carnegie Mellon University. Raised in rural Alabama, Jamie Earnest is best-known for her paintings and sculptures that explore themes of classic southern virtues that exist at odds with the collectivist, exclusionary narrative of southern hospitality. By employing specific symbols and narratives, Earnest attempts to come to terms with her own southern upbringing, which often feels contradictory with the social climate of her home state. Recent exhibitions Exclamation Point, Union Hall, Denver, CO; Thicker Than a Sticker, Vulcan Materials Gallery, Birmingham, AL; Heat Wave, Cindy Lisica Gallery, Houston, TX; Memory Palace, Equity Gallery, New York, NY and Private Spaces and Public Personas, The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh, PA.
