SUMMARY:Art Quilts: Breaking Rules\, Honoring Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Image: Vicki Conley\, Tree Rings \nFor our 28th annual Art Quilts exhibition\, the tension between pushing boundaries versus adhering to tried-and-true methods plays out in fiber form. We invited rule-breakers and traditionalists alike to interpret the theme in a variety of ways\, including applying it to physical techniques\, materials\, construction methods\, personal narratives\, or commentary on social\, cultural and political concerns. In addition to traditional quilting fabrics\, materials may include alternative substrates like wood\, paper\, or metal. All submissions – traditional\, unconventional\, or a combination of both – were considered for craftsmanship\, originality\, design\, and concept. \nThis exhibition was juried by Shelly White\, a Fiber/Mixed media artist and museum-arts educator. Using hand-dyed and printed textiles\, found papers and maps\, she creates contemporary artworks that honor the spirit of traditional quilting. Within the concept of navigation\, her work addresses ways in which we move through and across real and imagined geographies and the emotional passage of time. Shelly works as the Education Specialist for Mesa Contemporary Arts Museum in Mesa\, AZ and has exhibited in numerous local and national venues. \nhttps://shellywhitestudios.com/ \nhttps://www.instagram.com/shellywhitestudios/ \nExhibiting Artists \nSusan Allred\, Linda Anderson\, Betty Busby\, Abby Christensen\, Vicki Conley\, Denise A Currier\, Heidi Dauphin\, Karla Elling\, Diane English\, Linda Engstrom\, Laurie Fagen\, Victoria Findlay Wolfe\, Debra Goley\, Betty Hahn\, Marla Hattabaugh\, Janet Hiller\, Debra Kay\, Shari Keith\, Patty Kennedy-Zafred\, Shelley Koss\, Linda Laird\, Linda McCurry\, Margot McDonnell\, Anne Moats\, Anne Muñoz\, Frances Murphy\, Frauke Palmer\, Denneen Peterson\, Wendy Raisanen\, Redfox\, Sue Reno\, Judith Roderick\, Shelley Ann Rothgeb\, Brenda H Smith\, Aimee Smythe\, Linda Stern\, Ann Turley\, Claire Victor\, Rosanna Lynne Welter\, and Martha Wolfe \nBreaking Rules\, Honoring Tradition Catalogue\nTake the exhibit home with you!

SUMMARY:Nuance/Nuisance
DESCRIPTION:In the overwhelmingly urban Phoenix Valley\, the cacti and coyote of the desert can often feel distant – like a backdrop to our daily lives. As we drive air-conditioned cars between air-conditioned houses and air-conditioned jobs\, the environment can go woefully unnoticed and sometimes unappreciated\, even if it is physically close. The artists in Nuance/Nuisance invite viewers to roll down their windows and connect with the natural world that surrounds them. \nWhen Daniella Napolitano moved here from the Southeast\, she was surprised to learn that many of the long-time residents she met could not name a single native animal. In response\, she created prints and posters that use humor to call attention to the local fauna. Arizona native Gina DeGideo’s photo installations exude a sense of meditation while moving throughout the landscape as she pays homage to the overlooked parts of her natural surroundings. Rebecca Pipkin’s site-responsive work methodically documents the effects of illegally dumped plant waste in the South Mountain Preserve. The stark contrast between native and non-native flora evident in her artwork highlights the impact we have on nature. \nWe all exist as creatures in an ecosystem\, whether we think about it or not. So\, the next time you’re hiking a trail\, on a walk in your neighborhood\, or even just sitting on your patio\, take a moment to reflect on your connections to your surroundings\, and what affect you would like to have on them. \nExhibition Photos

SUMMARY:Ties that Bind
DESCRIPTION:Image courtesy of Philip Gabriel Steverson \nFamily: a six-letter word that can spark happiness or dread in a person’s heart. \nFamilial ties are tenuous and complicated\, and every family unit looks different. Some family relationships are merely blood connections\, while others are deep bonds built on decades of love and mutual support. Complicating the family dynamic further\, each of us has to navigate how we will carry our family’s history and the traditions we inherit from our ancestors. How we grow up and who we are surrounded by as we mature play major parts in how we navigate the world as adults. \nTies that Bind examines the drama\, trauma and joy that familial relationships bring to our lives. Benjamin Selby and Philip Gabriel Steverson aim to reconcile parental relationships fraught with generational trauma; Amanda Mollindo attempts to comprehend how cyclical patterns repeat throughout generations; Karen Nazario Moranchel\, Jisun Myung and Sallie Scheufler explore the pressures and expectations that are placed upon them by their family or parents; and Lindsey Rothrock and Heidi Dauphin delve into their family histories in an attempt to better understand themselves. Although the exhibiting artists’ approaches and media vary widely\, all are seeking to resolve their family ties on their own terms. \nExhibiting Artists: \nHeidi Dauphin\, Amanda Mollindo\, Karen Nazario Moranchel\, Jisun Myung\, Lindsey Rothrock\, Sallie Scheufler\, Benjamin Selby and Philip Gabriel Steverson \nExhibition Photos

SUMMARY:A Million Little Choices: Sami Lange
DESCRIPTION:In her intricately colored and textured paper quilts\, artist Sami Lange delves into the often heavy\, powerful\, and beautiful loads women and parents carry. The volume of stitches and thousands of hand-cut\, hand-dyed individual paper pieces in each work represent the overwhelming number of choices we each face on a daily basis. The layers of imagery represent the sometimes unconnected and jarring roles in our varied identities. Minor decisions in our everyday lives lead to a woven and quilted life\, made whole by the small moments\, healthy relationships\, and supportive circles we build for our families and communities. In the spirit of finding joy and staying within the boundaries of lightness\, the work focuses on the freedom we feel when little decisions allow us to make choices and create paths that resonate with our core identities. \nArtist Bio \nSami Lange is a paper dye artist living and working in Phoenix\, Arizona. Her artwork consists of hundreds and often thousands of hand-cut and dyed paper circles and shapes stitched together. Each shape is hand-cut by Sami with scissors\, dyed multiple times in water baths\, and then dried\, taped\, and stitched together. \nSami has a BFA in Printmaking and advanced degrees in education\, library science\, and leadership. She weaves together a life of motherhood and academic librarianship\, creating paper art and reflecting on the many dual roles in her work. Her work is in permanent collections worldwide\, including the Learning Connexion\,  Wellington\, New Zealand; the Kyoto Seika University Print Collection\, Sakyo-ku\, Kyoto; the Doyle Collection\, Santa Rosa\, CA; and the International Museum of Collage\, Santa Fe\, NM. She has had solo shows in Petaluma\, CA\, and Cookeville\, TN\, at Santa Rosa Junior College and Tennessee Tech University. \nImage: Sami Lange\, Life of Colors (Detail)\, Paper\, dye\, tape & thread\, 36″ x 24″ \nClosing Reception\nFriday\, September 13\, 6 – 8pm \nHelp us celebrate the end of A Million Little Choices!

SUMMARY:Speak to Me Softly
DESCRIPTION:While some activists advance their ideals using words\, the female and non-binary artists in Speak to Me Softly utilize their crafts to address complicated subjects. Using soft materials and methods such as fabric\, yarn\, and embroidery\, the artists spark conversations about queerness\, liberation\, public health\, childhood trauma and other issues we face in our world. Each of these artworks weaves together threads of complicated\, often charged\, subject matters and calls attention to important\, relatable topics that affect us all. \nExhibiting Artists\nAmber Doe\, Audrey Galat\, Amelia LaChance\, B Jean Larson\, Charissa Lucille\, Gloria Martinez-Granados\, Laura Rodriguez\, Karen Schumacher \nExhibit Photos

SUMMARY:Deities of the South: Marco Albarrán
DESCRIPTION:Multi-media artist Marco Albarrán has been creating work in the Phoenix Valley for over 30 years. His consistent focus on pre-Conquest indigenous deities and motifs unites his diverse artistic output\, which ranges from prints to large sculptures. Through a contemporary lens\, Albarrán undermines preconceived notions and vague interpretations of Pre-Colombian histories and offers alternative interpretations within a modern cultural context. Deities of the South examines the roles of ancient sacred deities in a modern world and encourages viewers to consider indigenous perspectives\, modular spirituality\, and sacred environments. \nExhibit Photos

SUMMARY:Art Quilts: IMPACT!

Inspiration for these quilts comes from pop art\, comics\, mass culture\, mid-century-modern design\, and graphic design. \nFiber artists from across the country and abroad were invited to submit to this annual exhibition of contemporary art quilts\, showcasing some of the finest textile art on display in the Southwestern United States. \nABOUT THE JUROR\nWendy Raisanen is a fiber artist living in Phoenix.

SUMMARY:The Art of Letting Go
DESCRIPTION:Artists tend to spend hours conceptualizing and perfecting their artwork. However\, what if they work with a medium that only allows them a few hours to create a piece? Does the perfectionism fall off? Are they forced to think differently? For this exhibition\, curator and monosilk enthusiast Edgar 8ahau Fernandez invited eleven other Phoenix-area artists to create monosilk prints. Ranging from novice to expert printmaker\, each artist brought their various techniques and styles to the process in a series of open studios. During their studio time\, they were given one directive– to use a specific type of pencil and crayon to draw on the screen. The result is a unique single edition print. Art of Letting Go Invitational Exhibition highlights a medium that is seldom celebrated while also helping artists find the freedom to let go. \n  \nParticipating Artists \nMarco Albarran\, Manny Burruel\, Diana Calderon\, Monica Crespo\, Edgar 8ahau Fernandez Miguel Godoy\, Zarco Guerrero\, Gloria Martinez-Granados\, Miguel Monzon\, Martin Moreno\, Karen Nazario\, John Randall Nelson \n  \nClosing Reception\nFriday\, January 10\, 6-8 pm \nRSVP\n  \n  \nImage courtesy of Edgar 8ahau Fernandez
