Printmaker Paige Dirksen takes us inside her exploration of the fascinating parallels between woodcut prints and quilting through her Creative Exchange Fund project. In this intimate conversation at The Medium in Springdale, Arkansas, Paige shares how she's stitching together these traditional crafts in innovative ways, fostering community art-making, and turning minimal geometric designs into tactile experiences. Plus, she gives us insight into her journey from creating marketable work to prioritizing artistic growth. Discover how this Medium Artist Resident is weaving communities together through the meditative magic of ink and fabric.
