Vadis Turner: Tempest at the Frist

Nashville-born artist Vadis Turner transforms commonplace materials associated with women, such as ribbons and bedding, into bold, textured assemblages that assert the value of female experiences, especially rites of passage. She is also interested in challenging conventional gender roles or, as the artist states, revealing “the underbelly of the female archetype.” This exhibition presents objects surrounding three potential phases of a woman’s life—the young Wild Woman, the Mother, and the Elder—along with a corresponding disturbance or agitation: a powerful storm, scorched emptiness, and the gradual silencing of voice.
