On View: June 7 - July 3, 2024
Artist Lecture: June 8, 2pm, reception to follow
Location: Russell Hill Rogers Galleries
This exhibition and lecture are a part of the Debbie McMahon Fiber Symposium.
Dee Clements is a process-based artist with interests in materials, craft, and ethnography. She holds an MFA in 3D Design from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Fiber and Materials Studies and Sculpture from The School of The Art Institute of Chicago. Her work is represented Nina Johnson Gallery in Miami, FL.
Her practice examines women’s roles in society and their unseen labor through the lenses of craft and art, feminism, ethnography, and patriarchy. The curvaceous, often matronly, saggy, lumpy, bulbous forms of my woven vessels and objet d’art are metaphors for what women hold and how their societal roles relegate them to specific crafts that have historically been deemed “Women’s Work.”
Gallery hours are Thursday - Saturday, 12 pm - 5 pm.
