SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "REWRITING HER STORY" at the Hera Gallery
DESCRIPTION:“Writer Elizabeth Lesser asks “What story would Eve have told about picking the apple? Why is Pandora blamed for opening the box? And what about the fate of Cassandra who was blessed with knowing the future but cursed so that no one believed her?” \nFlipping through the pages of your high school history textbook\, how many stories are written about women as monumental protagonists? When was the last time you watched a movie that passed the Bechdel test? When was the last time there were more women than men on the Supreme Court voting on the right to our bodies?  \nAs brands of “faux” feminism partnered with consumerist culture push out media representing women’s liberation through a patriarchal gaze\, how can we reclaim the visual language to share more authentic stories? How can our art share the stories of women\, trans women\, and non-binary folks written out of the history books? How does your work give voice to the overlooked and underrepresented?  \nHera Gallery presents 52 works that rewrite this cultural consciousness for a more inclusive human history.” \nI am honored to have two pieces in this salient exhibition\, and participate in a small way\, in Rewriting Her/Our/Their Story.\nWHITE ZIP\n\n \nand \nINTO THE BUSH\n\n \nPlease see the SHOW here.\n

SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "FIBER" at Silvermine Arts Center

SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "CARE" at Hera Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Hera Gallery proudly presents CARE\, a national juried exhibition exploring the concept of care through the eyes of artists from around the country.\n\n\n\n\nWorks selected by Priya N. Green\, Artist\, Painting Faculty\, Director of CCSU Chen Art Gallery\nMay 10th – June 14th\, 2025\nOpening Reception Saturday\, May 10th\, 6-8pm\nMix & Mingle: Arts & Health Thursday May 22nd\, 6 -7:30pm\nVirtual Artist Talk Thursday\, May 29th\, 7pm via Zoom\n\n\nWhen you hear or read the word CARE…\nDo you hear a noun\, a verb\, an imperative? Do you feel comforted\, overwhelmed\, or inspired by the sound and meaning of the word Care? \nHera Gallery is interested in how we as artists and as society relate to the concept of care at this moment in time.  \nFrom taking care and giving care to self-care\, and the call to care –  the idea of care runs through all our lives from beginning to end. Human care\, animal care\, environmental care\, or caring for an idea\, a faith\, a passion\, a commitment. Care is associated with cultural connections\, age\, and gender. How is this shifting? How do we find balance when engaged in caregiving at all levels? \nArtists respond to the question:\nHow does the word Care resonate with you\, which images\, stories\, sentiments does it bring forth in you? Which role does care play in your life as an artist and in your artistic practice? \nI am thrilled to share my triptych “RENT WOUND TEAR MEND HEAL REPAIR” 64 x 68 x .5″ (dimnesions variable)\, canvas\, paint\, hemp cord\, string\, lace\, in this timely show
