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 Victoria Walsh Exhibit
My work is texture inspired. Shadows, light play and layers add to the depth of my fiber art and practice. This piece was made during a recent residency at The Art and History Museums in Maitland FL, right before leaving my hometown and moving to Knoxville TN.
The Mera Ragsdale Exhibit
My paintings question the way we look at feminine bodies especially in comparison to how masculine bodies are viewed. In art history, the objectification and presentation of female bodies and an accepted way to present and view them has long been prevalent, specifically as non-threatening objects of sexual desire. My work questions these long accepted practices and empowers my subjects to visually challenge the viewer.
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.
