Bay Village resident Liz Maugans believes our world needs a huge casserole right now. Her large colorful mixed-media collages at BAYarts, “Leftover Casserole” are both humorous and meaningful, images of comfort food that sticks-to-your-bones and warms your heart.
“My studio practice is a big kitchen. I use what I have, particularly during the quarantine,” says Maugans, “Like leftovers that go into the casserole, these works are made from my stockpile, my dumping grounds, mixed thoroughly with the world’s unprecedented moment of change.”
For over twenty-five years, Liz Maugans has organized one-person and thematic exhibitions featuring regional, national, and internationally known artists. Her curatorial specialization is her devotion to emerging art, social justice, and local experimental practices that broaden access through social networks and community-building initiatives. An advocate for artists and the visual arts, Maugans has served as a consultant for numerous community development organizations and art business start-ups.
“I make very small steps,” she says, but they are part of trying to shift my focus to process and action, rather than worry. I’m sharing these dishes with you. Bring a fork!”
