BRAHM exhibition explores care and memory - published July 11, 2025
BLOWING ROCK — Sculptor and educator Andréa Keys Connell debuts her latest body of work in Pattern Mapping, now on view at the Blowing Rock Art & History Museum (BRAHM) through Nov. 29.
Known for her emotionally charged ceramic sculptures, Connell uses form, surface and pattern to explore questions of memory, resilience and care. Connell’s clay sculptures fill the gallery with color and detail, each piece inviting viewers to reflect on its meaning.
Connell, a full-time professor and artist based in Boone, described the deeply personal process behind the work, much of which was created during a sabbatical when she found clarity through daily walks.
