Amy Sanders De Melo : Invisible Voices


  • 325 E Main Street Norman, OK, 73069 United States (map)

Resonator is honored to host the exhibition “Invisible Voices” by Tulsa-based ceramic artist Amy Sanders De Melo. Amy’s intensely beautiful work is an empowering exploration of, and reaction to, a rare condition she suffers which is causing her to slowly lose her sight. It harnesses the voices of others who endure a similar fate to bring light, compassion, understanding, and enfranchisement to their lives and experiences.

You won’t want to miss this stunning and powerful display.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Much of the work I create relies on the connection found between people. My pieces usually have hand-textured Braille messages which is part of a dialogue which considers one’s own space in the world and how their identity and place changes over time--whether suddenly or subtly. The onset of blindness for me in the coming years urges the creation of pieces that touch on the uncertainty we all face, and the hope that even the tiniest bit of kindredness can provide.
