It’s been three years since I’ve done anything art related, so I thought what better way to break the dry spell than to organize a group show!
Side Hustle is a celebration of non-print artwork made by the printmakers who, through volunteering their time as monitors/interns/shop techs, allow the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop to operate year after year as a non-profit community printshop. As printmakers working in a printshop, we often only discuss or have opportunities to show our print-based work. This show aims to recognize our “side hustles” as most of us also create art in other media.
I will be showing a hand-sewn (no machine) dirndl that I conceptualized and sewed during my artist residency at the Grünewald Guild in 2013. Since I work primarily in printmaking, this is the first opportunity I’ve had to show this piece that took a month of full-time work to create.
Blackburn 20|20 Gallery is open by request Tuesday-Friday 10am to 10pm, and Saturday-Sunday 10am to 6pm. To view the show, you must ask for assistance at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop the 2nd floor.
The opening reception will feature wine, beer, non-alcoholic beverages, and light food.
