Rebekah Bogard explores idea of “cute” and girlish iconography to redefine stereotypes that apply to young women. She sees these images as part of a visual language used to typecast girls as weak, naïve and sweet, characteristics that make them socially vulnerable. The artist received her BFA from the University of Wyoming and an MFA from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. She has been named an “Emerging Artist” by Ceramics Monthly Magazine and has shown her work in several solo and groups shows, which have been reviewed in publications such as Clay Times, Las Vegas Weekly and the Portland Press Herald.
~”I am not the same person I was upon entering this place…I feel truly grateful, honored and privileged to have spent three months of my life here. I am stunned by the incredible heart and soul this place has.”
