ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This piece is from a series painted while I was the artist-in-residence at Thread, an artist residency in the small, rural village of Sinthian, located in Senegal, West Africa, supported by the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation. The Albers Foundation is a nonprofit organization to further "the revelation and evocation of vision through art." "Learn to see and to feel life..." -Josef Albers The small watercolor paintings I created were influenced by the patterns and colors seen in the textiles and dinnerware used at Thread. In turn, the patterns on these items resemble patterns found in Anne Albers' textiles. A surprising plethora of patterns and textures surrounded me during my month-long residency.

Born in Nebraska, USA Lives and works in Michigan, USA Maureen Nollette utilizes the fundamental elements of art to signify diverse aspects of contemporary life, converging, overlapping, and binding. Her investigation uses ordinary objects such as flattened, recycled boxes as patterns, layering arrangements with a network of lines and shapes. She constructs asymmetrical compositions through the placement, scale, and hue of components, resulting in work that resembles quilts, circuitry, or maps. Nollette's work has been in exhibitions across the United States and China. Additionally, her work is part of prominent private and public collections, including the Detroit Institute of the Arts (Detroit, MI); Yves St. Laurent (New York, NY); MGM Mirage Hotel (Las Vegas, NV); J. Jill Group (Tilton, NH); and Gerald R. Ford International Airport (Grand Rapids, MI). She was awarded a 2025 Carraig-na-gCat Artists Residency in West Cork, Ireland; a 2022 Thread Artists Residency in Sinthian, Africa; and a 2016 Marble House Project Artists Residency in Dorset, VT. Nollette holds a BA in Journalism from the University of Nebraska, a BFA from the Kansas City Arts Institute, and an MFA in Studio Arts from Queens College.
