SUMMARY:OverUnder Artist Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Crewe Center for the Arts’s Blossom Arts Lab on October 15 at 6 pm for a conversation with exhibition artists Rachel Gloria Adams and Rachel Sperry alongside USM’s Director of Exhibitions and Outreach\, Kat Zagaria Buckley. The three will discuss the OverUnder artists’ respective practices\, themes in their work\, and the somatic aspects of creativity. Special attention will be paid to the role of domesticity in the exhibition\, as well as how Adams and Sperry both investigate everyday and familial life as source material. \n\nRachel Gloria Adams in her studio.\n\nRachel Gloria Adams is a multidisciplinary artist living in Portland\, Maine. Adams has developed a vibrant\, graphic pattern-based visual language filled with references to the natural world that possesses an heirloom quality. Her work takes form by way of quilting\, painting\, design\, and murals. Adams moved to Maine in 2005 to pursue her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Maine College of Art and Design. She has gone on to exhibit artwork at the Portland Museum of Art\, Center for Maine Contemporary Art\, Notch8 Gallery\, and Dowling Walsh. Her work has been acquired by the Portland Museum of Art\, Farnsworth Museum\, as well as private collections. She has attended residencies at Surfpoint\, Speedwell\, Pace House\, and is an Indigo Arts Alliance David C Driscoll Fellow. In addition to her studio practice\, Adams has been commissioned to create murals for businesses as well as institutions\, including the Children’s Museum of Portland\, Worcester Art Museum\, and Farnsworth Museum. \n\nArtist Rachel Sperry in her studio.

In 2014\, Sperry founded her creative studio\, NUUFORM\, which has evolved over the years to encompass a wide-ranging practice including knitwear\, editorial commissions\, photography\, and studio-based work.
