Description
The MSC Visual Arts Committee is proud to present artwork by Karen Hillier, a Professor Emerita from Texas A&M University. Hillier's work honors the history of the Brazos Valley primarily through photography and found objects from the cotton industry. For seven years, Hillier has photographed the land of the Brazos Valley with special attention to an area called Mudville, which was shaped by Italian immigrants who were brought to Texas to fill the labor gap in the cotton industry after the Civil War. Her work shows the complicated, but beautiful, relationship to the land that humans have shaped through agriculture and industry. BRAZOSbrazos will be on display from August 7, 2024 through December 20, 2024. Admission is free, the Reynolds Gallery is open to the public. For more information please visit vac.tamu.edu
