This fall, AMSET will exhibit the works of artists Shawne Major and Angélica Delfina Vásquez Cruz. Shawne Major is an American mixed media artist, who creates two-dimensional hangings and three-dimensional sculptures. Through her mixed media collages, she explores our perceptions of reality and how they are influenced by dreams, memory, superstition, religious bias, prejudice and fear.
Angélica Delfina Vásquez Cruz, also known as the Ceramista del Preciosismo, is a potter from Santa Maria Atzompa, Oaxaca, Mexico. Her parents, Delfina Cruz Díaz and Ernesto Vásquez Reyes, taught her how to create toys, jars, pots and pans. She also studied with Mexican artist Teodora Blanco. In 1978, Cruz began creating her own work based on Oaxacan mythology, culture and folklore.
This winter’s Café Arts exhibition showcases the work of local artist Amy Tolbert-Faggard. Using oils as a primary medium, she includes a variety of subject matter while employing a number of different techniques. Amy’s work has been included in many solo and group exhibitions. While she continues exploring new avenues of learning in art, her goal is to continue producing quality artwork that moves and inspires the viewer.
