Wharton Esherick Museum Exhibition: Home As Self

I am delighted and honored to have a piece in the annual Wharton Esherick Museum exhibition. This year’s show, called Home As Self, is all about self portraits and my piece CHAIRchair received second place! The show runs through the end of August, and is worth a visit, for all of the works as well as seeing Esherick’s home and studio! For more information check out their website here.

And if you’d like to hear how Wharton Esherick’s furniture and work have influenced my own, tune in on zoom to a conversation between me and the magical Emily Zilber, the Museum’s Director of Curatorial Affairs. July 12, at 3pm EST. The link to sign up is here, and it’s free and open to the public!

The Longest Distance Between Two Points: Sculptural Furniture show at the Joan Derryberry Gallery of Art in TN

I am thrilled to have a solo exhibition of my work at the Joan Derryberry Art Gallery at Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, TN. If you’re in the area, I would love it if you would stop by! Masks are required and the gallery is limited to ten visitors at the time, but is easy to socially distance in and very accommodating! For more information on the location, visit the website here. The show runs from October 26th through November 20th.

Furniture Society Conference, June 23-25

My fellow Windgate ITE Residents and I will be giving a presentation at this year's Furniture Society Conference (full disclosure, I'm on the Board of Trustees for the FS, but this marvelous plan was cooked up and implemented by one of the other residents).  The presentation takes place on Thursday, June 23rd, from 4 - 5pm and is called, "Seven at the Center: the 2016 ITE Windgate Residents Collaboration Laboratory Presentation."  

If you're in Philadelphia and interested in furniture, art, incredible makers and thinkers who love sharing their work with others AND know how to have a good time, I recommend checking out the whole conference schedule - it's not too late to register!  Go to http://furnsoc.org/inspiration/annual-conferences/fs16/ for more information, and maybe I'll see you there.
