November Visiting Artist: Jill Foley

This month we welcome Jill Foley, who uses cardboard, fabric, and found objects to create artwork that is influenced by dreams, anxieties, humor, and her sense of being. Her room-sized installations, works on paper, and puppet-like figural sculptures fluctuate between the real and imagined. Meet Jill this month and learn more about her work and process.
