SHARON HAVELKA constructs mixed media quilt sculptures from old clothes and other used materials and found objects. Her work highlights the marginalized, the overlooked, that which is considered weird or unusual, and sews them into beautifully crafted and highly detailed objects. Born in Memphis, TN, she is inspired by her unique upbringing as a descendent of the Delta Chinese. Her grandparents were Joe W. Dunn, Sr. and Emerald T. Dunn, and her parents are Joe and Jean Dunn. She is also an RN currently working in the ICU at the Memphis VA Medical Center.
