Solo Exhibition: "Tethered"

Chellis Baird's solo museum exhibition: Tethered at the Franklin G. Burroughs-Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum (Myrtle Beach Art Museum) is on view now through December 19, 2021.

The beauty and fluidity of movement is at the heart of Tethered, a new exhibit by Spartanburg, SC, native Chellis Baird. This New York-based artist invokes the spirit of her background in textiles and fashion as she creates sculptural paintings by deconstructing, and then reconstructing, traditional tools of canvas and paint. In addition, the exhibit incorporates themes of South Carolina history and industry as it explores and tests artistic parameters. There are 31 works included in the exhibition.

 

Opening reception: September 11, 4-6 p.m.
