It couldn’t happen to a nicer and more talented lady.  No, you won’t find her in this photograph but you will find her in the concept behind this photograph.

The Meadows Museum, according to D magazine Arts Editor Peter Simek, has awarded its annual Moss/Chumley Artist Award to the deserving Frances Bagley (who with her husband, artist Tom Orr, designed the Dallas Opera’s incredible 2006 production of Verdi’s NABUCCO, from sets to costumes). This award is given to established North Texas artists for their commitment to bringing the visual arts to the community, which Frances has done from DART stations to the Music Hall stage.  Read more here.

One of the works cited was Frances’ video installation “Witness,” with many pairs of peering eyes and a single mouth that just won’t stop talking.

Guess who she cast in the role of the motor-mouth?
