Brenda Mallory
Texture and rhythmic repetition are central to Brenda Mallory’s abstract compositions and installations. By ‘sewing’ together soft fabric forms—primarily reclaimed materials—with industrial hardware, she explores themes of dominion, disruption, repair, and the interconnections within long-established natural and human systems.
Brenda Mallory has exhibited work at Gorman Museum of Native Art, UC Davis, California; Heard Museum, Arizona; and Portland Art Museum, Portland, among others.
