The artist will develop skills and complete work in a new but related medium. Seven-ten new works in the new medium will be completed within the time frame, to be displayed in two consecutive exhibits. Execution of the works will demonstrate the specific skills learned. 2: Buffalo/Wright county residents will engage with work inspired by local landscape and culture. An exhibit for Buffalo/Wright County residents will display the new work and through a presentation or workshop the artist will develop audience understanding of the medium and content.
Artist developed skill in hand paper making and incorporated this into finished work. Artist was able to complete two books. The first was a more traditional mixed media book of six double-sided pages. The second was a deconstructed book consisting of five double-sided textile works that can be exhibited as a book or independently. 2: Buffalo residents (12 households) participated in two workshops and created books that included elements of their responses to the landscape. Two workshops were given and a month-long exhibit of the work was hosted by Wright County Historical Society.
