9:00 AM - 3:00 PM Piecing it Together

Piecing It Together is a new body of work by Elizabeth Lee, in which she addresses the effects of generational trauma. In particular, Lee explores the personal trauma passed down from her refugee parents who fled the Vietnam War. For the last three years, Lee has been searching internally to learn how her upbringing has affected the person she is today. Each piece is arranged as a triptych to help her compartmentalize and process each part of her trauma. Lee is interested in the self-awareness and work it takes to break cycles of trauma; this is the driving force behind this series.

Isabella K. Saavedra is an artist and indigiqueer person (Pit River Madesi +

Saavedra attended Butte College before transferring to Southern Oregon
University to earn a B.S. in Art. After working at the Oregon Shakespeare
Festival as a props artisan, Saavedra moved to Portland and is now a studio
assistant at Marie Watt Studio. Saavedra’s practice is an amalgam of
painting, sculpture, and textiles that investigates personal history, ancestry,
daydream, and collective experiences. The selection of work on view is from
two ongoing series: Sardine Cans and Remnants. These series utilize found
and discarded materials and record the artist’s “NOW-isms”		Main Campus
