Chit Chat with Mark Cowardin

Join us for a “Chit Chat” about the sculptural works of Mark Cowardin. Mark’s work examines the complicated, sometimes troubling, and always compelling intersection between humans and the natural world. At the core of his research is a keen awareness of a personal connection to the delicate environs of which he speaks. Much of the work begins with the observation of the absurd illuminating the extreme beauty that ironically exists in some of humankinds' most damaging examples of consumption.

Mark Cowardin is a father, a husband, an artist, and an educator. He received an MFA in sculpture from the University of Arizona and a BFA from the University of Kansas, and currently resides with his family in Lawrence, Kansas. His work is included in numerous private and public collections including the John Michael Kohler Art Center, Kohler Corporation, the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, and Rockhurst University.
