McKnight Resident Artist Lecture: Pattie Chalmers
About
Join NCC virtually
on Tuesday, October 20, at 6 pm CT, where McKnight Resident Artist Pattie
Chalmers will present a free lecture on her work and life.
About the artist:
Utilizing a variety of approaches during the making process, Chalmers works
to create tableaux as an expression of a two-dimensional narrative space made
three-dimensional. With fabrications depicting a shrinking of the distance
between fact and fiction, her works visualize accounts from varying
experiences that are amalgamated to reflect the flux of how things are
remembered. She notes, “I am inherently an explainer and a storyteller and
through my work attempt to map my experiences—a collage of influences
combined with historical and fanciful elements revealing my observations
about identity, ideologies, and what I learn about others and myself.”
