 Licia Priest: I Am We

​Crafting Community in Paper Tole

April 25th - August 17th, 2025

​

Since the mid 1980’s, Louisville based artist Licia Priest has been teaching art and developing a practice that brings together her experiences working in painting, fiber art, sculpture, and photography. Her most recent work emerged from a research trip to Zimbabwe where she documented the food, flora and fauna, architecture, city, rural and family life, along with views and customs of care for the elderly. Photos from this trip are manipulated, first through digital color changes, merging scenes, and alterations to line, space, and shape. Priest then cuts up and organizes copies of her treated photos into multi-layered images that create the perception of depth. Her contoured figures and stacked layers ultimately become impressive, wall-mounted, high relief sculptures. 

Upcoming Exhibitions

Triennial 2025 - Banner 3.jpg

The 2025 KMAC Triennial, where the rivers run muddy and the mountains are bare, explores artists’ relationship with the natural world and the ways in which we navigate our changing planet amid climate crises and an augmented physical connection to our environment. The exhibition questions how the ever-widening gulf between the real and the virtual can be mediated through artistic practice. Furthermore, the exhibition underscores Kentucky’s striking landscape and identity in the wake of political conflict, resource extraction, and extraordinary weather events.

​

This exhibition will open to the public during Vernissage, our exhibition preview series, on Friday, May 30th from 5-8pm.
