About the exhibit:
Fiber and Textile Art has traditionally been relegated to the domestic-sphere, dismissed as “women’s work”, and assigned limited value beyond use in one’s home. My work seeks to challenge conventional perceptions of “value” associated with these mediums.
This exhibition emerged from the finding of discarded and unfinished, vintage textiles and unused embroidery thread inherited from my mother-in-law. Sorting through the vintage textiles, my own perspective shifted from seeing them as merely unfinished crafts to recognizing their latent artistic and storytelling potential.
I sought to capture the energies of these stories suspended in time, by layering appliques of my handmade felt with the abandoned stitching. The process of methodically stitching together soft fibers and textiles with a needle and thread, and framing them against a backdrop of delicate textiles joined together and woven into sharp and jagged metal frameworks, allowed me to intimately explore each piece through layers of color and texture. As each piece evolved artistically, its story was revealed, and with the use of historical references and selected song titles, brought into a modern context.

About the artist;
Kami Watson (b. 1972) is a second generation fiber and textile artist specializing in wet felting, the ancient process of creating a textile by combining thin layers of wool fiber with soap, water, and agitation. Using this labor-intensive technique, she creates both sculptural and flat textile work, combining process-knowledge learned from her mother with her own creative exploration. Upon being awarded a Craft Fellowship from the Alabama State Council on the Arts, she also studied with internationally renowned felt artists to continue to expand her knowledge of her craft.
In Kami’s most recent exhibition work, she is exploring the incorporation of hand stitching and mixed media with her felt. She draws inspiration from the people and places she’s encountered and experienced while living her free-spirited and primarily nomadic life.
Both a working and teaching artist now residing in Huntsville, AL, Kami has a studio located in Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment on 2nd floor South, and has taught at art museums, craft schools, artist facilities, and her studio. Currently, you can find her creating in her studio, teaching workshops at the Huntsville Museum of Art, or as a recipient of a Verdant Fund grant, part of a Regional Re-granting Program by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, providing free felting classes for the local community via the North Huntsville Public Library.

About the exhibit;
I feel art is a window into the soul and a testament to life’s journey and influences. These journeys and influences become the spark for creativity and the vision of my art. It teaches me to reach out to others.
About the artist:

I am a self-taught artist from Alabama and I draw inspiration from Nature, Life and the experience of the creative process. My art has a story from the found objects and memories I create into folk art. I have been on the art circuit for 20 years now.

Currently on View: Mike Matthews - Card Subject to Change: A Look at Pro Wrestling in North Alabama
2024-04-03 - 2024-05-25 | First Floor West Gallery
This exhibition round includes works provided by Mike Matthews which will be on view in the First Floor West Gallery from April 3 – May 25, 2024. Lowe Mill A&E invites patrons and art lovers to join us for Open Studio Night, a building-wide experience when our over 150 studios will be open to the public. The evening also includes receptions for all seven of our gallery spaces.

Come out, enjoy a pleasant evening, and maybe you’ll find that special piece of art that speaks to you! The Open Studio Night reception is Saturday, May 25 from 5-7 pm.

About the exhibit:
“Card Subject to Change” is a look at pro wrestling in North Alabama. As a kid I loved wrestling. I would try to watch it every weekend. When I graduated high school in 1997, I stopped paying attention to it, but in 2009 a coworker started a conversation with me about what I had been missing over the past ten years. I was once again bitten by the wrestling bug and started watching new matches and old ones on YouTube. In 2019 my group of friends started attending WWE shows in Huntsville and Birmingham. I would wander the floor taking pictures with my cellphone. In the same year we began going to local indie wrestling shows in Hartselle and Lewisburg Tennessee. I brought my camera to these shows to take photos for myself and to share with the wrestlers. In 2023 I was introduced to Rocket City Championship Wrestling (RCCW) in Hazel Green.
While in Hazel Green, I began photographing my friend, wrestler Tiger Kid, and his wrestling associates. The shows are great entertainment and I love the energy from the crowd. It’s family friendly and it draws major support from its local fanbase.
These pictures were taken using both digital and film photography. Some of the digital photos are taken with a cellphone and others with a DSLR. All film was processed, developed, and printed at Southerland’s Photo.

About the artist:
Huntsville native, Mike Matthews is a photographer who specializes in events and concerts. His love of photography grew from using his parents’ film camera as a child. In 2011, he purchased his first DSLR. Subjects have ranged from wildlife landscapes, weddings, and products. In 2017, Mike started shooting concerts for Nashville based musicians and bands. In 2021 and 2022, he toured twice with the band the Dead Deads across the US and Canada giving him the opportunity to photo the bands Kiss and The Darkness.
When he’s not at a show or editing his photos, Mike can be found “slinging” pop-culture at The Deep Comics and Games where he worked for more than 20 years. The love of collecting (that is part of his job) has led him to estate and garage sales where he sometimes finds old film cameras. “I have always liked the look of film. While trying to find my style, I embraced what influenced me. I fell in love with black and white concert photos, promo photos and album photos from the 70s through the 90s”.

Currently on View: Anna Lyle - Cut Twist Bind
2024-04-03 - 2024-05-25 | North Floor Gallery, 2211 Seminole Drive, Huntsville, AL, 35805, United States
This exhibition round includes works provided by Anna Lyle which will be on view in the North Floor Gallery from April 3 – May 25, 2024. Lowe Mill A&E invites patrons and art lovers to join us for Open Studio Night, a building-wide experience when our over 150 studios will be open to the public. The evening also includes receptions for all seven of our gallery spaces. This series gives the public a chance to meet and interact with visiting artists and discuss their work as it is on display and available for purchase. Come out, enjoy a pleasant evening, and maybe you’ll find that special piece of art that speaks to you! The Open Studio Night reception is Saturday, May 25 from 5-7 pm.

About the exhibit:
Cut Twist Bind is an exhibition consisting of painting and sculptural works from 2023-2024. Metaphorical imagery of fabric interacting with unattached anatomy describes the process of deconstruction and rebuilding of thought and worldview. This tends to be a sensitive yet important topic in the Deep South. Many are raised in a society where free-thinking outside of organized religion, particularly Southern Christianity, is discouraged, sometimes even thought of as dangerous. The process of performing these mental gymnastics is confusing, and along the way reality becomes warped and twisted as one starts anew, eroding a foundation to make way for a new one. This exhibition invites viewers to visualize this idea tangibly through fabric and our physical bodies, blurring the line determining which is which.
My attention to detail and the overall compositions in my work are sourced from my bodily hyper-fixations and the ways in which I feel the inner workings of my body perform. My compositional choices ride the fine line between comfort and discomfort, using fabric as a metaphor for human anatomy, inside and out. I work with both figurative and spatial perceptions, creating ambiguity and tension between the various elements in each painting.

About the artist:
Anna Lyle (b. 1992) is an artist and painter from Birmingham, AL. She received her Bachelor of Architecture from Mississippi State University in 2015 and her Master of Fine Arts from Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2023. While having a past professional life as an architectural designer, Lyle exited the architecture industry in her late 20’s to pursue a career in painting and drawing.
Anna mines conceptual inspiration on place and purpose in the world outside of experiences and memories in the Southern Baptist Christian religion in which she grew up, and in the years since leaving. Lyle has exhibited work coast-to-coast in the United States, with works in private collections in the U.S., Canada, and Germany.
