November Featured Collections: Ulla-Stina Wikander, Yoonmi Nam, and Andrew Jeffrey Wright at Paradigm Gallery

Paradigm Gallery + Studio is pleased to present three distinct collections championing craft and reinvention for CraftNOW 2024. Artists Ulla-Stina Wikander, Yoonmi Nam, and Andrew Jeffrey Wright have spent many years honing in on their respective crafts that incorporate the use and repetition of found materials. In a time where new objects are constantly produced with diminishing relevance and single-use purpose, we uplift unique methods of upcycling in art that recontextualizes material to expand on larger ideas of craftsmanship, methods of production, and the functionality of objects. Each artist creates artwork through layering of old and new construction, bringing new life to past pieces and not letting matter go to waste. Featured Collections: Ulla-Stina Wikander, Yoonmi Nam, & Andrew Jeffrey Wright will be on view on the first floor of the Paradigm Arts Building (12 N 3rd St) from November through December 1, 2024, with a public opening reception on Friday, November 1 from 6:00-8:00 pm.
