ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

MISFITS is an exhibition about artworks that don’t quite fit in. These artworks are anomalies that don’t play nice with the rest of an artist’s collection. They may be a great one-off or the piece that started an entirely new body of work. Artists were asked to take a look around the nooks and crannies of their studio and find art that has been waiting for its time in the spotlight. This allowed for a more open-ended submission process without any particular theme to conjoin the work together. MISFITS features artworks in a wide array of mediums including clay, paint, sculpture, textiles, assemblage, wood, mixed media and so much more.

ABOUT THE JUROR:

Chris Dacre, Artist & Art Educator at Sierra College and American River College

As an artist, Chris Dacre experiments with concept, technique and medium to explore new ideas and play with imagery. His belief is that through those experiments something will spring out at me and lead him to a new way of working- a new concept. Chris lives in the woods outside of Nevada City and teaches art at Sierra College and American River College.
