Early in the COVID pandemic, the cliché went that lockdown would be the opportunity for everyone to finally finish—or, more likely, begin—that creative project you’ve long been pondering. Things were more complicated than that, but that doesn’t mean the time has passed for anyone still pondering how to get those creative juices flowing. By way of offering some possible inspiration, Craft Lake City is using it’s Temporary Museum of Permanent Change public art spaces to showcase alumni from previous years’ DIY Festivals. Faces of Creativity brings together 14 local artists and previous DIY Fest vendors who were asked to create self-portraits representing their distinctive styles. Participating artists include Nikkita
Nouveau (pictured), Megan Hindman (whose illustration represents her as a female knight in armor), Trishelle Jeffery (showing herself as a printmaking artist-at-work), Mojdeh Azani, Chris Haggqvist, Noelle Margetts, Elaine Lee, Beatrice Teigen, Maddie Morrill and more. Whether through photography, painting, digital art or illustration, these works showcase the challenge of presenting oneself to the world through one’s art, and what you’re telling the world about the creative side of yourself. Faces of Creativity will be up in locations on 300 South between 200 East and 200 West, now through April; the exhibition is free and always open, and COVID-friendly in its openair, view-when-you-wish environment. On Tuesday, Feb. 22 at noon, you can join a virtual “Lunch & Learn” discussion featuring many of the exhibition’s participating artists. Visit craftlakecity.com to register for the virtual event, or for additional artist information. (SR)
