Recently I became acquainted with a friendly fellow that came by the shop fresh from a Ford’s haircut down the sidewalk, who said he had noticed the art, that his wife had started doing art during the pandemic, and that he wanted to bring her back by so that we could meet. Shown here are mixed media assemblages by Tulsa artist Amy Lipperd, now on display at The Palate for a limited time. You are invited to come by and engage with these pieces in person and find out more about Amy’s work, which challenges the viewer to think about objects in their own lives and how they spark a memory, whether good or bad, and how the practice of making the thing out of those memories serves the past, gives hope for an optimistic future, and reminds us to keep rooted in the present. Thanks for looking!
