OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Sienna Prater Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I’m Sienna Prater, a multimedia artist from Knoxville, TN.
I work primarily in sculpture, paint, ink, and various forms of printmaking.
I graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, NY studying Fine Arts and was most recently exhibited in the FIT Gallery’s Show “Conversations.” (2020)
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.

More Exhibits
The Ashley Garner Exhibit
My submission was inspired by all the many ways over time I, like all women, just had to figure it out. As a result of figuring it out, I have built a successful custom painting and furniture restoration business (Nest) as well as a writing career, writing for The Dollywood Company, Knoxville Mom's, Her View From Home, and Today.com.
The Emily McClenagan Exhibit
Jane & Pearl started during my twins' nap in 2015 as a way for me to create as well as give back to others. I am partnering with Thrive Parkridge in East Knoxville to amplify their work and donate profits to help with projects such as renovating rooms and spaces in their 100-year-old building. I love to paint live at weddings, watercolor home portraits, and of course whimsical florals.
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.
