ArtShare LA Shares A Common Thread
I am honored be a part of ArtShare LA’s exhibition, “A COMMON THREAD“, a 13-woman exhibition featuring fiber-based and textile works of art exploring autobiography and social critique, connection and displacement interlinked through themes of history and memory.
The show was curated by ArtShare LA Executive Director Beth Stryker and Visual Arts manager Baha H Danesh.
Each artist’s works are exhibited together, creating specific artistic spaces for visitors to peruse.
I am thrilled to have four works in the show.

“Women Artists Unfolding”: Celebrating Women Artists at the West Valley Regional Branch Library
In honor of Women’s History Month (March) the West Valley Regional Branch Library celebrated women artists with a bookmaking workshop led by artist in residence Debra Disman!
Patrons joined us to create their own handmade books which unfolded to hold informative and inspiring images and information about renowned artists Faith Ringgold, Frida Kahlo and Yayoi Kusama. All materials were provided. The program is made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.
Yayoi Kusama and her ubiquitous polka dots was a hit!
