Remarkably skilled printmaker, multimedia artist and scientist Margaret Craig has been named The San Antonio Art League + Museum’s Artist of the Year, and her exhibitionCraig ‘s work speaks to the delicate balance of eco-structures that are subjected to endless cycles of post-consumer waste. Although delicate and seemingly fragile, her work both mimics and bears the scars of this constant interaction in a real and profound way.
“My work is rooted in the symbiotic eco-structure we all precariously live in and involves an elaborate, possibly excessive, process that cycles the original post-consumer paper and plastic through several art forms and media, including acrylic, watercolor, printmaking, marbling, papermaking and sculpture,” Craig said in a statement.
Her imagery, though derived from nature, includes the waste of commercial products, revealing the traces of branding embedded far beyond logic and reason.Since 1986, the SA Current has served as the free, independent voice of San Antonio, and we want to keep it that way.
