The format will be similar to the in-person Forum. Artists will be grouped in several sessions to speak about their work and answer questions for about 10 minutes. It will begin at 12PM ET and last until 2:00PM ET with a short intermission. This is the first time we are trying this format\, so we are very excited about the possibilities and still solidifying the details.\nOnline Forum attendees will also have access to the live broadcast of Jessica Hemmings lecture on Saturday\, June 4\, 2022 at lunchtime ET.

SUMMARY:Lecture with Cynthia Lockhart
DESCRIPTION:Cynthia Lockhart’s fiber art is infused with a kaleidoscope of diverse influences such as:  nature\, fashion\, music\, dance\, travel\, African and other cultural arts. Lockhart’s textiles are distinguished by their pulsating colors\, which simulate the vivaciousness of her African ancestry\, and by their irregular\, organic shapes and circles. \nThe artist’s textile creations\, which push the boundaries of the traditional quilt form\, are composed of colorful fabrics arranged in dynamic patterns. Her fashion and accessories design background provide the perfect platform for creating exquisite three-dimensional artwork.  Lockhart’s fiber art tells a story – one that encourages people to understand the diversity of people\, cultures\, and beauty in the world around them. \nAs an award-winning international artist\, she is an active contributor in the design arts community. As Emerita Associate Professor at the University of Cincinnati\, Professor Lockhart has lectured at conferences and museums throughout the United States\, Japan\, Italy and France. She is a member of the Women of Color Quilters Network. In 2021\, Lockhart received the Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Award. \nCynthia was a Fiberart International 2013 participant artist.
