Artist: Annamarie Williams-Buchanan | Location: Abingdon, VA
Abingdon, VA
Annamarie Williams-Buchanan received her MFA from Clemson University in South Carolina in 2019 with an emphasis in drawing. Buchanan is a visual artist that uses drawing and mixed media to explore empathic and spatial relationships with the abject body, particularly the feminine body. She realized the need to spark conversation about such social injustices after being a house manager for a women’s resource center on the campus of her undergraduate alma mater. After that, Buchanan began working closely with local women’s aid shelters. Through art and activism, Buchanan hopes to get people thinking about the ways they themselves can make an impact in their own communities. Her work has been in several publications including See Spot Run, Pine River Anthology, LUMINA and Paper Darts. She has also exhibited her work at Kai Lin Gallery, Fe Gallery, Flora Kirsch Beck Gallery and Clemson University.
