In 2017, Kristen T. Woodward was able to witness a total solar eclipse in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was moved by the dramatic planetary display. She is looking forward to viewing another eclipse in her hometown of Webster, New York in April, as we will be in that exquisite path of totality. Woodward marvels at how science has allowed us to countdown the minutes while other events in our lives appear random and chaotic. The experience leaves one to ponder what is pre-ordained. By including images inspired by solar eclipse, her encaustic paintings intend to capture this conflict and visual tension between chaos and natural order.Woodward received her BFA in Printmaking from Syracuse University, and her MFA in Studio Art from Clemson University. Her zoomorphic paintings combine encaustic and print processes, and often utilize found collage materials. Woodward is a professor in the department of art and art history at Albright College, teaching drawing, painting, printmaking, and gender and the visual arts. Currently, she is collaborating with an environmental biologist to explore tropical ecosystems in Costa Rica. Woodward serves as is Resident Curator for the online site Artists2Artists. - Apr 20All daySAAM Library DisplayToday's Events | Case-Geyer Library, 3rd Floor

Do you have a ripped sweater, a broken bike, or a bent bracelet? Repair it; don’t trash it! Repair cafes aims to reduce waste by teaching people how to fix broken items to encourage reuse. Volunteers from our area will bring their tools and expertise to not only fix, but teach you how to fix items yourself. With designated topic for repair, such as bikes, sewing/crafts, and electronics, this event welcomes everyone to learn valuable repair skills and teach others. Through this initiative, we hope to promote reuse while building community, as people may need to work together to fix their items.
