Artists Talk with LVA: January 6, 2022

Skylar Smith opens an exhibit at fifteenTWELVE this week and Megan Massie Ware is directing the world premiere of Zac Hoogendyk's play Ossietzky. We talk to all three this week on Artists Talk with LVA. Tune in to WXOX 97.1 FM/Artxfm.com Thursday at 10 am to listen in.

Skylar Smith is an artist, curator, and educator. Her work deals with micro and macro perceptions of the natural world, and human-scale politics that influence perception. 

She is a founding member of Kentucky College of Art + Design (KyCAD), and she has taught college-level art studio and art history courses for over a decade, in addition to teaching at non-profit and alternative-education venues.  

In 2020 Smith curated BallotBox, a contemporary art exhibition examining past and present voting rights with support from Kentucky Foundation for Women, Louisville Metro, Louisville Visual Art, and Great Meadows Foundation. BallotBox was on display in Louisville Metro Hall and at 21c Museum Louisville through March 2021.
