Joseph Gallivan interviews Alexis Day

On Tuesday, Jan 14, 2020, at 11:30 a.m. Joseph Gallivan interviews Alexis Day about her new show of tapestries which is at Elizabeth Leach Gallery now through March 1. Day talks about how she blends photos with fabric, sewing, beading and painting, and how she tries to construct psychologically dense scenes from family life inside mid-century modern homes.

Born in Bandon but based in Portland, Oregon, Alexis Day is a mixed media artist whose work investigates how perception and memory impact individual and cultural identity. Day received an MFA in Visual Studies from Pacific Northwest College of Art, a BS in Art Practices from Portland State University, and a BS in Psychology from the University of Oregon.
