Stick Together

Multiple Artists

This juried group exhibition of collage artworks shows the ingenious minds of artists who are sticking unusual elements together to bring a cohesive voice to the viewer. Many of these artists have used untraditional materials for their messages about the value of community: sticks, thread, doll parts, fabric, rocks, and original watercolors cut and repurposed as stop-motion animation. The main theme throughout the exhibition is the value of community and respect for everyone’s life experiences - and that we are all unique and need each other.

Curated by Airi and Riho Katsuta, the creative force behind the collage collective Cut+Paste Phoenix, which is dedicated to fostering a sense of community through creative, tactile, and meaningful experiences for individuals of all ages and skill levels.
