Eastfield presents Rische’s artwork
From Staff Reports
Gallery 219 at Eastfield College presents Sue Anne Rische: “Coalesce” now through Nov.13. An artist lecture and reception will be held on Friday, Oct. 23 from 6 – 8 p.m. Gallery 219 is located on the upper floor of the Fine Arts Building (Building F) in Room F219C.
Sue Anne Rische works with layers of materials and meaning. Collections of religious texts and hand crafted doilies and other lace and crocheted objects are reconstructed and renewed to create visual experiences that are both spiritual and humanist. Deconstructed religious texts and thrift store doilies and tablecloths are used to create delicate and powerful soft sculptures and wall mounted objects. Spirals of lines and text, and the inclusion of found and handwritten “fortunes” contribute to her explorations of identity through sacred and secular storytelling. The use of words—The Word — and language give her work its power. The layering of multiple narratives—the forgotten and hidden stories behind the handmade fabrics and the stories told in the documentation of religious philosophies — create an experience that is private and profound.
Rische holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Texas Tech University and a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Washington. She has taught at Texas Tech University and is currently a member of the Fine Arts faculty at Collin County College. She lives and works in Princeton, Texas.
