The careers of a Twin Cities mother-daughter artist duo have intersected in a new way: through a multimedia exhibition at the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. <\/p>\n

Peggy Thompson is a painter whose work often explores nature and our relationship with the environment. Her daughter, Maggie Thompson, is a multimedia artist known for her textile and beadwork. <\/p>\n

Together, they’ve created an exhibition that brings those practices together, called “Inherited Ground<\/a>.” It is on view at the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum through Sept. 30. They joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about their work together. <\/p>\n
