Woven Memories Exhibit

Location: Library West Entrance Niches
Dates: Now through December

Woven Memories brings together the work of Mizzou students Reese Betts, Hanieh Darvishian and Sofia Ortega, who use art as a vehicle for exploring their identities and personal narratives. United by a shared focus on fiber arts, these graduate and undergraduate students from the School of Visual Studies push the boundaries of their medium by combining textile techniques such as pulp painting, weaving, and crochet with other artistic processes. Each student featured in the display highlights an element from their familial past and heritage, bringing it to life through their synthesis of various mediums. This display accompanies the exhibition Parting Gifts, currently on view at the Museum of Art and Archaeology, and is a product of a collaborative effort between the museum and MU’s School of Visual Studies.
