​Artist - Linda Popp

Statement

The title for this exhibit is from an essay by Zora Neale Hurston……….we are each “a jumble of small things priceless and worthless.” I use these small things to convey stories about relationships with family, place, love, faith, nature, self, time, and other themes. I describe myself as a narrative found object assemblage artist. During the process I go beyond my personal stories and the narrative becomes universal as I feel our stories are all connected. I hope that something from my story will cause you to reflect on your own narrative and perhaps influence you in a positive way. Reflection on personal narratives in order to better understand self and others is a powerful experience that continues to draw me to my studio and my work.

Linda Popp is originally from Chicago but has lived in the Baltimore area since 1974.She retired in 2016 after a 41-year career, teaching visual arts with Baltimore County Public Schools (30 years in secondary art and 11 years as the Visual Arts Coordinator). She then taught in the Maryland Institute, College of Art MAT Program for one year. Linda supervised art education student teachers at Towson University, and then retired again in 2021. She was on the Maryland Art Education Association Council and even has an MAEA Leadership Award named in her honor. Linda has served on the National Art Education Association Council as the Secondary Division Director and Eastern Region Vice-President and was named a Distinguished Fellow in 2018.
Since retiring, she has been able to shift her focus full-time to her studio work. Linda exhibits her work in several galleries in Maryland and on the East Coast. She maintains a website and she also presents her work on Twitter and Instagram. She has created several videos documenting aspects of her assemblage process on her YouTube channel that have been used in the classroom and by individuals.  She was recently featured in an article in Bmore Art Magazine.
This summer Linda has been invited to have a one-woman show in Nashville, Tennessee as part of the Tennessee Art Academy at Belmont University.
