Assistant Professor Demitra Thomloudis Included in Exhibition at 108 Contemporary

Jewelry by Demitra Thomloudis
Log in to post comments

Assistant Professor Demitra Thomloudis has been included in a group exhibition at 108|Contemporary in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

108|Contemporary is a non-profit community arts organization that supports Oklahoma’s contemporary fine craft artists. Their exhibitions facilitate a community where world-class craft and design inspires and educates audiences of all ages.

108|Contemporary's upcoming exhibition Building on the Body: Identity, Materials, Jewelry features architecture as it melds with the human body. This exhibition brings together artists from around the world that use industrial and construction materials to create micro structures that highlight the unique architectural aspects of jewelry and the body it adorns. Through this process, the jewelry takes on a new form and becomes a wearable piece of architecture.

Architecture is often associated with the industrial construction of buildings: however, in Building on the Body 15 designers from Asia, Europe, and the United States have come together to challenge this concept. Using bodies as a foundation, the designers create breathtaking visual stories that often reflect the individual wearer’s urban identities. The exhibiting artists use industrial materials often used in construction, from concrete and steel to corrugated cardboard, to celebrate the human body and the expression of one’s identity through ornamentation using the same visual language of urban construction.

“These distinguished artists construct personal identities from architecture, cities and postindustrial landscapes.”
- Erin Rappleye, Curator

In addition her inclusion in this exhibition, Demitra Thomloudis has been welcomed  for an artist talk during the exhibition. Thomloudis' artist talk will be held on August 1, 2019, at 6 PM at 108|Contemporary.

Thomloudis received her MFA from San Diego State University after receiving a BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art. She is a recipient of a Kent State University Research Council Award, the Bedichek-Orman Professional Development Grant, was a 2015 nominee for the American Craft Council Emerging Voices Award, and was a Society of North American Goldsmiths’ (SNAG) Emerging Artist featured at SOFA Chicago in 2014 with representation by Charon Kransen Arts. Her artist residencies include the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft and Smitten Forum. Thomloudis' work is exhibited internationally in exhibits such as Unclasped Discovering Contemporary Greek Jewellery at the Hellenic Museum in Melbourne, Australia in 2015, JOYA in Barcelona courtesy Alliages Organization, New Traditional Jewellery Confrontations, featured at SIERAAD Art Fair and The Museum for Modern Art in Arnhem, Netherlands, and the 2013 Beijing International Jewelry Art Biennial. Her work has been including in the books 500 Plastic and Resin Jewelry and 500 Enameled Objects published by Lark Books and The Art of Jewelry: Plastic & Resin: Techniques, Projects and Inspiration.
