Accoutrements, Amulets, Adornments

Accoutrements, Amulets, Adornments is an exhibition and workshop by multi-disciplinary artist R. Melinda Hoffman. Community, collaboration, and storytelling undergird this exhibition inspired by a rediscovery of Hoffman’s idea journals and sketchbooks from her stint at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Envisioned as a participatory art residency, this exhibition enjoins visitors to view, experience, and craft sculptural adornments, symbolic amulets, and imaginative accoutrements alongside the artist.
