White & Texture & Paper & Fiber
I am thrilled to be participating in two show on opposite coasts which aim to share artworks that center on some of my specific interest in artmaking.
“White & Texture” at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod:
“Subtitled Monochrome Unity, we invited artists to explore the profound subtleties and striking complexities of using white as the driving color and how texture within the white and informs the execution and the narrative of an artwork. We wanted them to explore the effect of this limitation – without a “conventional” color palette.”
“White Zip”
“Paper & Fiber: Fourth Annual Show” at 1202 Contemporary in Gilroy, California:
“1202 Contemporary proudly presents its 4th annual Paper + Fiber show, celebrating two mediums that women artists have traditionally used for centuries, but have always been considered “craft,” or less than fine art. Uplifting and supporting artists who have worked in textile, fiber, and/or paper mediums, this exhibition centers and hones in on the theme of figure.”

SOLILQUY: Not Just Talking To yourSELF
The Bridge Arts Foundation proudly announces the third edition of its Open Call Exhibition Program. The ‘Soliloquy‘ Open Call Exhibition features 19 talented artists selected from over 100 submissions through a process involving art professionals.
These artists will showcase their work at The Scholart Selection, The Bridge Arts Foundation’s partnered Art Gallery located in Los Angeles from July 13th to August 17th, 2024.
Join Us for the Reception, Saturday July 13, 2-5PM
at The Scholarts Selection
417 South Mission Drive San Gabriel, CA 91776
Opening Reception RSVP
Featured artists include Ryan Bautista, Michele Benzamin-Miki, Ming Chen, Debra Disman, Deanna Dorangrichia, Somaya Etemad, Lanyi Gao, Steve Gavenas, Shanguo Jia, Antonio Kim, Rosie Kim, Hwichan Ko, Vionna Lam, Kai Mao, Janice Nakashima, Isabella Riboni, Isabella Ronchetti, Christopher Lloyd Tucker, and Xiaoxiao Wu.
The 19 featured artists in the exhibition respond to the theme of “soliloquy” through various forms and mediums, presenting their unique journeys of inner exploration.
“Soliloquy” is a solitary discourse with oneself, an intimate dialogue that transcends the confines of external perception. It captures the journey of introspection and self-discovery, where one navigates the labyrinthine corridors of one’s own mind, seeking clarity among the tumult of thoughts and emotions. During their inner reflections, the individuals grapple with existential questions, honestly confronting their fears, desires, and vulnerabilities in solitude.
The 19 artworks showcased in “Soliloquy” also demonstrate the diversity and depth of soliloquy. It is not only a personal dialogue within oneself but also a significant pathway to understanding oneself and the world. Beyond the individual, these artworks collectively underscore soliloquy’s capacity to connect the individual’s inner world with external realities, offering insights that resonate with broader societal issues and enrich human connections.
