Q & I Question: Why Art?
How can our questions lead us through times of change or upheaval? Maggie Hubbard, a painter from Chicago, finds visual art to be an avenue that leads to insight, healing, and criticality. In considering modes of both making and perceiving, Hubbard will touch on the unique learning that can occur within the realm of art.
Maggie Hubbard (b. 1991, Northwest Suburbs of Chicago, IL) utilizes painting as a way of questioning and knowing. Starting from personal narrative, Hubbard depicts people, objects and spaces that are charged with political and social connections. These illustrative renderings aim to capture the psychological residue of whiteness in middle-class America. She holds a Bachelors of Science in Illustration from Indiana Wesleyan University and is currently pursuing a Masters of Fine Art at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
