OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Liberty Collins Exhibit
About Her 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.
It’s also been hugely influential in beginning more conversations with women around me as they find their own struggles represented and the strength to discuss them.
I am humbled by the journey of these body vessels and the connections I’ve made by sharing them.

More Exhibits
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 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 Angela Howard Exhibit
During this past year with everything else, I felt paralyzed from moving forward-with my dreams. I had to sit with discomfort and allow everything to move at ITs own pace. After completing these dream boards, I took my own advice and moved ahead on a whim without attachment and my dream came true.
