Off the Wall features three Oklahoma-based artists — Sarah Ahmad, romy owens and Marium Rana — who create large-scale works that come in stunning and unexpected forms. These artists work in fiber, textiles and mixed media, using techniques that range from sewing and quilting to the intricate application of paint and the exploration of cutting-edge technology.

Ahmad, owens and Rana have transformed the Mary Leflore Clements Oklahoma Gallery with immersive and interactive installations. Rather than being confined to the walls, their artworks extend into the air and explore the physical, vertical volume of the gallery.
