MONROE, LA - The ɫAV Art Program and Bry Gallery are currently hosting an exhibition of works titled “Reply All” by Memphis artists Christen Parker and Lacy Mitcham. Both artists are alumni of the ɫAV Art Program. Mitcham is currently an Instructor of Art at The University of Memphis; and Parker is an Instructor at both Southwest Tennessee Community College and The University of Memphis.
The show will be up through November 16th. An artist’s talk will be given on Wednesday, November 16th in Sandel 236 at 2:00 p.m. with a reception following in Bry Gallery.
According to Parker and Mitcham’s artist’s statement, “Reply All,” can be described as:
“An exhibition of drawings and textile art that has given the artists permission to explore their interior and exterior worlds, and allowed them to become reacquainted with work they have completed in the past.” While Parker has become more aware of her immediate surroundings and the nuances in her environment, Mitcham has taken to the outdoors to build a creative vocabulary. Though the means differ, grappling for solace is the commonality.”
Bry Gallery is open from 8:00 a.m. - 4:30p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8:00a.m.-11:30p.m. on Fridays. The public is invited, and admission is free. For more information, please contact Joni Noble, Art Program Coordinator at (318) 342-1376.
