Cristin Tierney and Abattoir Gallery collaborated to show the works of Audra Skuodas. Born in Lithuania during World War II, Skuodasarrived in the U.S. at the age of 9 with few memories of her childhood. Although she produced work for her entire life, Skuodas’sart was rarely shown—even though her husband spent his career teaching art at Oberlin College. The galleries sold a painting to an institution for $40,000, but the works on paper at the booth, combining colored pencil drawings with stitched metallic threads, were show-stopping.
