Object Description
Artist | McNeelan, Kimberly |
Title | Objects for Engaging Community |
Degree Earned | M.F.A. |
Degree Grantor | Indiana University |
Advisor(s) | Robinson, Cory; Holzman, Laura; Nordgulen, Eric; |
Year Degree Granted | 2016 |
Keywords | Community; Engagement; Socially engaged art; Interactive sculpture; |
Abstract | A strong community has regard for ecological health, personal health, and intellectual health for everyone. As an artist and a designer, I create functional sculptures that encourage awareness and action towards creating a more vibrant society comprised of strong communities. These intriguing forms entice viewers to investigate what the sculptures offer. The take away may be a book, a packet of seeds for plants that will benefit pollinating insects, a seedling to grow your own vegetable plant, or just the thought that these elements are part of a healthy and locally focused community. Through my art and woodworking, I strive to have a conversation with the public about what is needed for a satisfactory life. |
