Gather with other people who love art and our planet. North Texas artist Isabel Lee-Rosson will share poetic art processes that renew nature and our spirit while making connections with Groundswell: Women of Land Art. Add your natural flair to a vine wreath for your home and a flower bomb to plant in your garden.

This workshop is designed for adults ages 21+. Learn something new, have a bite to eat, and get creative.

About Isabel Lee-Rosson

Influenced by the work of women land artists, such as Agnes Denes, Maren Hassinger, and Ana Mendieta, Lee-Rosson’s expanded practice includes mixed media work on paper, installations of guerrilla gardens, and a series of woven structures titled Odes. Her work calls attention to the deterioration of the environment while educating and offering solutions to these issues through composting techniques and the utilization of traditional wattle weaving. Lee-Rosson’s Odes aim to honor the site they are built on through material choices, improving the soil, and providing a habitat that supports native flora, insects, and birds.

Isabel Lee-Rosson is an artist and art historian from Abilene, TX and is currently based in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Lee-Rosson earned a Master of Arts in Art History, Criticism, and Conservation from the University of North Texas in 2017 and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Two-Dimensional Design from Abilene Christian University in 2015. In 2019, she presented her research at the Arts Patronage in Modern America: International Conference at the Rothermere American Institute, Oxford University, and in 2022 she was a panelist for the Global Humanities Symposium: Engaging in Cultural Diplomacy hosted by The Meridian Center for Cultural Diplomacy and the National Endowment for the Humanities in Washington D.C. She currently works as the Manager of Visitor Experience at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas.
