Carrie Iverson is a printmaker and glass artist who often combines these media into multipart installations.

Known for her innovative use of materials, her site-responsive installations have incorporated glass, print, found objects, video, and sound. Often drawing inspiration from archival materials, Iverson is interested in examining how evidence is presented, how events are reconstructed. As part of her studio experiments, she developed a unique process combining traditional lithography with image-making in glass. She has subsequently continued to develop this process in her work and to teach it at studios in the US and internationally.

Additionally, she has had the honor of being an artist-in-residence at Glenfiddich (Scotland), the Seto Center for Glass and Ceramics (Japan), Pilchuck Glass School, and the de Young Museum, San Francisco, to name a few. Her print-based work is in multiple private and public collections including The Art Institute of Chicago (Chicago, IL), the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago, IL), and the Virginia Museum of Fine Art (Richmond, VA).

“Erring Girls” is part of a new body of work based on research into The Berachah Industrial Home for the Redemption of Erring Girls which operated in Arlington Texas from 1903-1935. Run by the Rev. James T. Upchurch and his wife Maggie Upchurch the home took in homeless (or unwanted) women and girls, usually pregnant, from Texas and the surrounding states. The home kept ledgers of applications received, as well as an inventory of “the girls and babies on hand.” The girls are almost never named. 

Iverson will be working at the Tamarind Institute in New Mexico in July 2024 and will create a series of lithographs based on the descriptions of the girls from the ledgers. The material submitted is the current concept for the print work.
