OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Connie Flachs Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I am inspired by movement and human growth, physical, mental and spiritual.
This work in particular is part of a series of dance journal entries that have enabled me to document a time of major transition (of career, personal life, and place) in my life.
The female spirit, to me, is sensual, feeling, flexible, and deep.
This piece is called “I Am”.

More Exhibits
The Dorothy Verbick Exhibit
I am a middle school art teacher and a meditation/mindfulness practitioner. Before college, I had only taken an art class in elementary school. I doodled the comics (mostly Garfield), did NOT draw all the time, and did not have an encouraging family to support my art curiosity. Somehow, I still went for it.... art school made sure to let me know how far behind in knowledge I was...especially during critique.
The Sienna Prater Exhibit
I am inspired always by feelings and stories! I love to make art that has strong movement and color, and can convey depth and space in a new way. These acrylic on canvas paintings were all done in the space of about a month, and were all inspired by organic things in nature; stones, mountains, etc.
The Liberty Collins Exhibit
I'm an East TN native who grew up playing outside crushing poke berries, painting on tin with rocks, and digging in the red clay of my backyard. Now I’m a potter! I started my body vessel project in September of 2020 after a diagnosis of a chronic illness. Since then, it's blossomed into a wonderful exploration of loving my body, its limits, and overcoming shame around my illness and imperfections.
