The University of Arkansas at Little Rock is hosting an exhibit by alumni artist Diane Page Harper until Feb. 19.
The exhibit, “Calling Home,” is a collection of mixed media collages that explore ideas of weighted memories and the emotional imprint of cultural and personal history.
“I long for connection to the past, to the military communities and family that raised me,” Harper said. “What most see as cultural detritus from the 1960s and 70s, I see as potential anchors to the images I’m building of my memories. Those anchors, combined with an extensive archive of family photographs, help me to heal the homesickness I feel but that I never seem to cure. All of the bits of memories, the images, the sounds, the smells, find their way to me from time to time, made all the more vibrant and real when I dig through and combine them in an attempt to reconcile my own fractured past.”
