The ArtisTTable's Studio Award is presented to an artist that exhibits a unique studio practice or way of working that is a variation from what we might think traditional or even possible. These carefully assembled fabric pieces by Blair Treuer bring to mind the intricacies of life. Family and cultural dynamics are both interesting and sometimes hard to negotiate. In this body of work, stories are told and likenesses are achieved. There is an overwhelming sense of care and commitment shown here not only in the individual art works but to the reality that they represent.
