During her time with [Artspace] at Untitled, Sarah Atlee created quilts using deconstructed garments and other reclaimed textiles. She also produced a limited-edition print in collaboration with Untitled; “You Were Here”, is a two-layer serigraph that dynamically utilizes the color of construction orange, epitomizing the growth and change of the Deep Deuce area. Atlee designed the print and the large quilt, Just Around the Corner, based on historical maps of the area, satellite imagery of Oklahoma City, and her own photographs of the urban environment detailing streets, walls, and railroad tracks.
In this Artist Statement Minute, Sarah talks about her show, “Just Around the Corner,” which will be on display from June 15 to July 15, 2017.
