T​his powerful collection celebrating women’s contributions and resilience will host an exhibition preview for women on March 2nd from 2:00 - 5:00 pm, as well as an opening reception on March 6 from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm.
About the Artist.
My studio practice involves re-contextualizing female figures from the artworks of celebrated Renaissance masters such as Botticelli and Titian. By placing these images into a contemporary visual space, my artwork promotes a dialogue around how every day images of women are steeped in misogynistic ideals. My canvas has become a safe space for me to examine the expectations we place upon women, from how they look to how they behave. I explore these ideas through the lens of consumerism, art, culture, and media. It is my hope that the work I create as an artist can allow women to feel more seen and heard.
