Graphic Designer, Corinne Whittemore, explores themes inspired by the Rio Grande Valley at STC’s Mid-Valley Library Art Gallery.
Artist Talk & Reception: October 3rd from 1 – 2 p.m. at the STC Mid-Valley Campus Library (Bldg E – 1.210)
The South Texas College Mid-Valley Campus Library Art Gallery is hosting an exhibition titled “Our Language/Nuestra Lengua,” which will showcase mixed-media collage works created by artist Corinne Whittemore.
Whittemore, who grew up in the Rio Grande Valley, earned her MFA in Visual Communications from the University of Arizona and has been teaching graphic design at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley for the last five years. With over fifteen years of experience in graphic design, Whittemore has worked as a Production Artist, Graphic Designer, Marketing Coordinator, and Freelancer on both the East and West Coasts.
About her work, Whittemore says, “My art is an exploration of my environment both in identifiable geographic areas and as a perceived and sacred internal space that visually and linguistically blends local experience and character.”
An artist talk and reception will be held at the STC Mid-Valley Campus Library on October 3 from 1 to 2 p.m.
The exhibit will open on Tuesday, September 3, and be on display until November 22, 2024. The Mid-Valley Campus Library is located at 400 N Border (Bldg E – 1.210) in Weslaco, TX
The exhibition and artist talk are free of charge and open to anyone who wishes to attend.
