Guest Artist, Anika Major is a Texas-born ceramic artist living in Seattle, Washington. Anika graduated from the University of North Texas, and received her BFA in ceramics and painting. She combines her love of clay and figure painting in her colorful painted pots.The shapes of her pots imitate the lumpiness of the human body, and her surfaces come alive with expressive and flamboyant heroines. Anika’s narratives of romance and queer domestic comforts are informed by her affinity for the pageantry of the rodeo, and the symbolism of the glamorous and feminine cowgirl. Join us in a Free Guest Artist Talk where Anika talks about her beginnings in clay, her inspirations, and her ceramic creations.
Lecture will be held in the KAC Gallery. This artist talk is free and open to the public. Follow @kirklandartscentereducation for more details.
