Huhn’s work combines meticulous
craftsmanship with a dark and somewhat earthy sense of humor. She can
surprise and amuse the viewer with her carefully stitched, collaged, and
beaded textiles that support a cast of loosely cobbled-together found images
in disjointed single-frame narratives.
Wendy Huhn currently lives and works in Southern Oregon. She is a graduate
of the University of Oregon (BFA 1980) and is currently on staff as a
visiting professor. Her mixed media textiles have been featured in solo
shows at the Springfield Museum in Springfield, OR (2001), the Thirteen
Moons Gallery in Santa Fe, NM (2000), and the BonaKeane Gallery in Portland,
OR (1999). They have been included in such invitational exhibitions as the
Quilt National (most recently 2003), Fabric Constructions at
the Leedy Voulkos Gallery in Kansas City, MO (2003), and Living
Traditions—Contemporary American Quilts at The Textile Museum in
Tilburg, The Netherlands (2001). |
