Artist talk and reception-
March 12 12:30-1:30
Christine Price Gallery at Castleton University
Traci Molloy is an artist, collaborator, and social activist that creates figurative works of art on paper (primarily headshots) utilizing drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, and digital processes. Her work, minimal in aesthetic, explores themes of adolescent culture, identity, and narrative in relation to gender, class, race, and violence. The pieces are actualized as large, conceptually related series. Molloy’s goal as an artist as a collaborator is to make resiliency manifest in visual art. She is particularly curious about how humans process trauma and grief, what occurs emotionally and psychologically during the aftermath of violence, and our society’s ability to recontextualize history to mask painful truths and nullify collective loss. Though the content of Molloy’s work is often difficult, the finished pieces are celebratory, acknowledging the spirit and strength of the individuals I depict.
