Art with a Personal Touch Senior Madalynn Olmsted brings attention to mental illness through art.
By Alyssa Bessasparis
Senior Madalynn Olmsted’s artwork draws upon her experience with mental illness and brings awareness to the prevalence of mental illness in today’s society. Olmsted uses drawings and embroidery of birdcages, childhood toys, razor blades, chains, pill and alcohol bottles, barbed wire and the distorted human figure to illustrate the lifelong impact of childhood abuse and neglect.
“I romanticize mental illness to force my viewers to be immersed in a taboo subject that society tries to ignore,” Olmsted says. “I hope to educate the public and reduce the stigmas associated with mental illnesses to promote healthy healing and recovery in today’s stressful world.”
Olmsted has displayed four sculptural fibers works entitled Nurture, Lost, Harmful Home and Healingin the Undergraduate Visual Art and Design Showcase in January where she received a $250 merit award for funding professional development. She then displayed the same works in the Undergraduate Juried Exhibition in February at the George Caleb Bingham Gallery.
For her project, Healing, Olmsted used hand-dyed silk organza to illustrate cutting, a form of self-mutilation. According to Pazia Mannella, Olmsted’s faculty mentor at MU, the book’s fabric is slashed and embroidered with deep red thread that progresses to deeper shades as the viewer progresses through the book, like an open wound. In the book’s final pages, the wounds have healed, illustrating the end of the self-harm pattern.
“Madalynn's work demands the viewers to personally address their thoughts and emotional reactions to these important mental and physical illnesses,” Mannella says “She is fearless in her work.”
Children often don’t know how to report abusive behavior and are unaware they are being abused, Mannella says. It is common for them to suffer from mental illness, be suicidal and abuse drugs and alcohol. It is certainly a topic many would prefer to ignore or pretend didn’t exist, she says.
Olmsted’s interest in understanding how the mind works developed when she was a child, possibly struggling with an undiagnosed mental illness.
“I was confused and didn’t understand why I was feeling the way that I did, so I always kept my ears open to others’ stories to see if my experiences were normal,” Olmsted says.
Olmsted has always been artistic, but believed she would not be able to make a career out of art. She learned otherwise after being hospitalized due to mental illness halfway through her sophomore year at Mizzou. She failed all of her classes that semester, except for her fibers class, in which she received an A. Olmsted switched her major to Fine Arts, and has been wrapped up in following her passion ever since.
“Creating art is my therapy and it is how I express myself. But art is so much more than just the expression of an individual,” Olmsted says. “It can become a visual platform to bring awareness to sensitive issues, and it can create a sense of belonging among the most diverse audience. It helps us to explore the inner workings of our minds, and it brightens our daily lives.”
Olmsted is currently focusing on the Emerging Artists Residency she has been awarded by Columbia’s Resident Arts. The program provides emerging artists with one-on-one career consulting, the opportunity to participate in up to five professional development workshops free of charge, documentation services and 24/7 access to studio space. Olmsted’s residency began February 5 and will continue through June.
The program requires its selected students to research, produce, and present to the public one large-scale project or a series of smaller works. At Columbia’s Resident Arts gallery, she will be displaying a series of weavings that illustrate the daily rollercoaster of emotions felt by those affected by mental illness.
“It’s unique to find projects that deal with very heavy issues in such a way that it doesn’t diminish the issues themselves,” Madeleine LeMieux, founder of Resident Arts, says. “I’m impressed with Maddie’s ability to provide an insider’s perspective about mental illness by being so open about her own experiences. Her work is visually striking.”
Olmsted plans to assign a different color of yarn or material to each emotion, activity or trigger point. Each weaving will have its own key that documents each material used and what it represents. The key will need to be read before one is able to understand the entirety of the piece, she says.
“I hope to create a space for my audience to compare their daily routine to the daily routine of the mentally ill,” Olmsted says. “Our minds and emotions are all incredibly complex and unique to each one of us based on an infinite number of variables.”
Through Facebook support groups, Olmsted has come into contact with people of all ages from Australia and the UK who, in addition to MU students, have lent her their daily emotion logs so she can transform them into a tactile weaving to represent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder.
“Hopefully, this series will bring awareness to the reality of living with a mental illness, thus encouraging community learning, empathy, prevention and recovery.”
The opening night for the Resident Arts showcase is June 3.
Olmsted hopes to continue creating art at an exhibition level and eventually attend graduate school. She never wants to stop learning.
“To me, art is life; I live and breathe to create,” Olmsted says. “I believe art can help us all heal, relax and get in touch with our creative sides.”

AARON MCINTOSH, FIBERS CLUB VISITING ARTIST, Public Lecture at Leadership Auditorium, Monday, March 14th, 5:00PM-6:00PM, and Public INVASIVE Workshops, Monday, March 14th and Tuesday, March 15th.
Invasive, a project for Southern queers and their allies, subverts the negative characterization of invasive species and uses queer kudzu as a symbol of visibility, strength and tenacity in the face of presumed “unwantedness”. Traveling across the Southern states, the project will facilitate the collection of stories of LGBTQ people through workshops at community centers and historical documents from archives. Drawing on the preeminence of quilting in Southern folkways and the work of creator Aaron McIntosh, the artist will embed these stories, photographs, and archive documents into quilted leaves and vines. Eventually forming an overwhelming and undeniable mass of Southern queerness, the kudzu will be exhibited at art centers and public events across the Southeast.

Aaron McIntosh (b. 1984) grew up in Kingsport, TN, a factory town in the Appalachian foothills of East Tennessee. A fourth-generation quilter, his family’s working class environment and domestic material culture figure large in his art practice. McIntosh’s education includes a BFA from the Appalachian Center for Craft and a MFA from Virginia Commonwealth University. His exhibition record includes numerous solo and group exhibitions, including Queer Threads: Crafting Identity & Community at the Leslie Lohman Museum of Gay & Lesbian Art in New York, and most recently Man-Made: Contemporary Male Quilters at the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles. His work has been published in the LA Weekly, ArtNews, the Houston Chronicle, American Craft magazine, FiberArts, and the Surface Design Journal. His essay, “Parallel Closets”, was published in the April 2014 edition of the Brooklyn Rail. McIntosh currently lives in Baltimore, MD, and teaches at the Maryland Institute College of Art as a Professor in the Fiber Department.

Call for Entries: Art Quilt Exhibit, Daniel Boone Regional Library, due March 15, 2016.
Once again this spring, the Columbia Public Library will display a selection of quilts throughout the building for all to enjoy. This year's exhibit will take place April 2-16, in conjunction with National Library Week. This year, we will feature art quilts, and are seeking submissions from area quilters. If you have a quilt you'd like to submit for consideration in the exhibit, please fill out this form and email it, along with a photo of your quilt, to mindy@missouri.edu.
The exhibit will be curated by Mindy Smith, local artist and CEO of the Boonslick Trail Quilters’ Guild. Due to space limitations, not all submissions will be chosen to be part of the display. Submitted pieces may have any form of embellishment, but must meet the definition of a quilt: a middle batting sandwiched between two layers of fabric and all three layers stitched together.
If you have any other questions, please send your query to Mindy Smith.
Submission deadline is March 15, 2016.

FIBER FACE 4 ONLINE EXHIBITION « Babaran Segaragunung Culture House.
The fourth in the series of Fiber Face exhibitions extends the previous themes of Evolution and Transformation into the new theme of Resonance: An Intangible Cultural Heritage. The Fiber Face 4 Online Exhibition poses the above questions to both Indonesian and international artists working in the realm of fiber and textiles. Artists are invited to contemplate how their artwork is a form of resonance. This exhibition seeks to open a space for sharing both traditionally based and contemporary fiber artworks to enliven and live within, and to share intangible cultural heritage. It will do so by using the intangible platform of an online exhibition. The internet is an appropriate space in which to share these ideas, being itself conceptualized through textile metaphors: it is a net, a web, a kind of virtual tikar (woven bamboo mat for sitting upon) that can serve as a public platform for dialogue and sharing. Making use of this unique exhibition format, Fiber Face 4 Online Exhibition will create a truly public showcase of fiber artworks accompanied by writing, interviews and other interactive and educational material addressing the resonance of fiber arts’ intangible cultural significance across the world. In addition to the artists’ works, there will be a Spotlight Exhibition of West Timorese Mollo weavings, allowing for deeper contemplation on the lineage of textile traditions in Indonesia. This online exhibition will serve as the steppingstone to future publications and a physical juried exhibition of the same theme when the appropriate space and funding is secured.
CALL FOR ARTISTS SUBMISSIONS
