September Guild Meeting: First Saturday, September 5!
This Month:
Artist Sommer Roman lives and works in Santa Barbara. She received her
MFA in 2014 from UC Santa Barbara, and subsequently became their
inaugural artist-in-residence for the following year. Her art practice is
comprised of both 2D and 3D work which can be categorized as playful
surrealistic abstraction. Sommer will discuss her habit of collecting domestic
discards (clothing, pillows, bed sheets, discarded toys, windows), her nontraditional
approach to working with fiber, her interest in play, her historical
and contemporary influences, and her past and recent projects
