OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Chloe Allison Melton Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I am inspired by nature and energy.
I want to know why things happen.
I am very curious. In a way, my art documents that.
I also consider art my platform to communicate about important issues.
I love that I can use art to inspire others. It allows me to show viewers a perspective they may not have otherwise considered.
In a world where everyone is seeking change, I believe the pivotal role of the artist is to be a messenger of the many perspectives people have.
I also love to include empowerment as one of my themes.
The pieces submitted include:
- A clothing collection I did based on women’s empowerment
- A painting I call “Persistence” (based on the persistence of a strong woman)
- “Mother Nature” (acrylic on canvas inspired by an essay I wrote called: My Mother, Nature)

The Yasmin Murphy Exhibit
Hello!! My name is Yasmin Murphy and I am a photographer residing in Knoxville, Tennessee. Photography for me is the thing that allows me to be who I truly am: connecting with others, building relationships, and being creative. I love the opportunities that have allowed me to tell others stories and make their vision come to life. When I am not photographing I am bouncing around to estate sales, cooking a meal at home, or exploring Knoxville.
The Meg Nocero Exhibit
When in April of 2011 I lost my mother to breast cancer, I also lost my way. Perseverance and a never give up attitude is certainly something I learned from my Italian American upbringing as well as a love of writing, reading books and the arts. Navigating the grieving process, I turned to writing as a healing tool. I started simply. I would wake in the morning and read from a book that resonated with me.
The Allison Hong Merrill Exhibit
I'm a Taiwanese immigrant writer based in Utah. My work mostly centers around my upbringing in Chinese culture, which sadly, conditions women and girls to submit to men's will.
