🖼 Artist Spotlight: Patrick Owens![]()

"To me, location and place is important, and I want people to know that my work was made in and about the South, especially with my photographs in Alabama – home to generations of my family. All the sculptures are tied to Alabama as well, some much more loosely than others. I’ve never travelled much outside of the Southeast, but really, I think the images and materials speak to small towns and rural communities at large. My biggest pleasure, probably more so with the photographs, is when somebody looks at my work and makes a connection with their own past, their own memories."![]()
