High Craft refers to works done where the imagination and the hand of the maker are evident, and it seeks to represent the global diversity of craft through local artists: Maria Anderson, Beverly Kirk, Lawrence Naff, Ann Solinski, and Amy Young. These artists created new work for the Hulsey gallery space, which encouraged them to push the boundaries of their chosen medium.
While the artworks represent a wide range of themes, they reflect each craft person’s circumstance as a creator and a person of color living in the state of Oklahoma. The work varies from introspection of identity and abstraction to cultural exploration and historical narratives. The exhibition highlights the universality of the human impulse to express ourselves in ways that are creative and dynamic.
Special thanks to the host gallery for High Craft 2023 Exhibition the Oklahoma City University’s Hulsey Art Gallery in the Norick Art Center.
