OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Susan Verekar Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I love everything to do with color.
My art often embraces raw emotion, transformation, coming into one’s power, and a balance between light and dark.
I paint with acrylics and oils and play with alcohol inks.
I started painting a year ago as I was struggling to find my identity after becoming a mom.
It started as a creative outlet but become a way to find myself again.

More Exhibits
The Allison Hong Merrill Exhibit
I'm a Taiwanese immigrant writer based in Utah. My work mostly centers around my upbringing in Chinese culture, which sadly, conditions women and girls to submit to men's will.
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 Shannon Deana Johnson Exhibit
I am a Knoxville, TN based mixed media painter. My process is intuitive. I work to create a balance between harmony and contrast, simplicity and accumulation, and stillness and motion. As the painting progresses, I often add more concrete elements such as botanical or figurative shapes. In this latest series called, “Story of a Girl,” I have been exploring the use of imagery connected to the idea of femininity and aspects of it that are meaningful to me.
