Baylee Schmitt crocheted the childhood bedroom she shared with her twin

But that’s what artist Baylee Schmitt does; and her latest collection “We settle into corners with dust and mites" which replicates, to scale, her childhood bedroom — is currently on display at the LaiSun Keane gallery in Boston, MA, through Feb. 16.

Schmitt earned her master’s of fine arts degree at Miami University and now manages the University of Cincinnati printmaking lab at the University of Cincinnati’s College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning (DAAP) and teaches there as well.

An interview with Schmitt — with colorful photos of her art works suspended from the ceiling and anchored to walls — was recently featured in the Boston Globe with a Q & A format. The article highlights Schmitt’s artistic approach, her technique and a backstory of growing up as a fraternal twin, shy and artsy compared to her sister’s social and athletic bent.   

“I have always been an artsy kid,” she told the Globe of chosing childhood memories as her genre.    

According to the biography on the LaiSun Keane website, Schmitt has exhibited work with solo exhibitions at River East Gallery in Toledo, OH, at LASC in Lexington, KY, and the Fitton Center for Creative Arts in Hamilton, OH. She has also participated in group exhibitions at Design TO in Canada, Ohio Craft Museum in Columbus, OH, Sanitary Tortilla Factory in Albuquerque, NM, and Gallery 130 at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, MS.
