OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Kendra Barth Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
My name is Kendra Barth (aka Blanket Fort Studio) and I am a multi-disciplinary artist in Knoxville TN. I make ceramics, illustrations, prints, paintings, jewelry..etc.
My playful quirky style is visible in all of the things I make and I am often inspired by the wonder of nature.
This Illustration, titled “Fierce” is my representation of the tenacity of the female spirit. In nature spotted Hyenas organize under a matriarch and work together, using teamwork and intelligence to hunt and outwit rivals.
They are strong, female opportunists and damn scary. This hyena is dancing toward an opportunity, secure and brave, not only surviving but thriving.
The colors are muted, imitating the colors in nature and softening the tone of the piece. She is playful, surreal – constructing herself in the moment.

More Exhibits
The Dorothy Barkley Bryson Exhibit
I am inspired by the wonders of Spiritual encounters and scientific discovery, by Nature, by Peoples, and by the remarkable diversity in every element of life. My writing is a reflection of what I see and especially the way I see it, and is a celebration of the Oneness echoed throughout all creation.
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 Shay Coope Exhibit
I'm Shay Coope, shop owner of P.S. With Lovee. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker, mother to a beautiful little girl, wife to an amazing husband, and lover of all things colorful! To me, being a woman means being a complete badass! We are strong, nurturing, amazing multitaskers, and true advocates of what we believe in.
