Hignite evolved into sculptor and art educator after a jaunt through motherhood with five rambunctious children. She now exhibits her artwork in galleries and juried competitions on a national level and sells her artwork via online venues. Hignite holds a BFA, MFA, and MA from Miami University. Hignite received the Lilly Endowment for Teacher Creativity in 2012 and 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I grew up with a love for nature and an appreciation of the human form. I have an affinity for the art of primitive cultures and a desire to insert that genre of sublime power into my own work. I feel very strongly that everything is connected and that we are all one. These connections encompass the realm of our ancestors; flow into the present, and on to our future generations. My work is a recurrent attempt to capture these elusive connections within a sculptural form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1-770x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1-770x1024.jpg 770w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1-226x300.jpg 226w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1-768x1021.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1-624x830.jpg 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/a-fa-e-fall2021\/files\/2021\/06\/Hignite_reliquary1.jpg 1733w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Pamela Hignite was born and raised in Hamilton, Ohio.
