SUMMARY:Quilt Paintings Art Exhibition, (SCENE) Metrospace, Department of Art, Art History, and Design
DESCRIPTION:
 Quilt Paintings is a solo exhibition featuring 
 the artwork of Anna Buckner. I piece the fabric 
 scraps together forming a quilt top that 
 is then stretched on a support. The design of 
 the piecework is appropriated from traditional 
 quilt patterns, but the initial symmetry of 
 the piecework is compromised through stretching, 
 causing the material to warp. Therefore, 
 the support of the painting is a tool for transformation, 
 revealing the potential of these 
 materials, and pushing them into a role for 
 which they are not traditionally used.\n
 \n
 Raised 
 in North Carolina, Anna Buckner received 
 a BFA in painting from the University of North 
 Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2012 and a MFA 
 in painting from Indiana University in 2016. 
 In 2014, she completed an apprenticeship in 
 Buddhist Thangka painting in Sikkim, India. Anna 
 Buckner has exhibited nationally extensively 
 and was recently featured in the 125th edition 
 of New American Paintings. She is currently 
 a Visiting Assistant Professor at Michigan 
 State University.\n\n
