Deep Dive into “DWELLINGS” at Artlink

January 2, 2025 By Debra Disman

I am thrilled to be part of a beautiful and timely show, “DWELLINGS” at Artlink, housed in the Auer Center for Arts and Culture in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Learn about and view the show HERE!

I love participating in shows all over the country, and see the extraordinary talent, diversity of media, level of skill and and passion for expression manifesting itself across the United States at all times.  This helps me to feel connection, hope and the sense of belonging to a creative force working to resist cruelty, negativity, smallness and isolationism. Brava to the brave and resilient gallerists, curators, organizations, funders, institutions and artists working tirelessly to support the growth of the human spirit into its most elevated aspirations.

“For the exhibition DWELLINGS, juried Steve Garst, Artlink invited artists to submit works of any media that involve homes, shelters, forts, nests, burrows, or any other forms of inhabited space used by humans or non-humans. Where a creature lays its head can be a place of refuge, sustenance, and identity.  They are cauldrons of growth, filled with love, hurt, anger, learning, and memory.  Often, homes are constructed and, in turn, end up constructing the lives of those who dwell within them, for better or worse.  Artlink is excited to offer an exhibition exploring the variety of human and non-human places that serve as home, in all its numerous manifestations.”

My artists’ book “Window Treatment” is in the show and I am proud to be in such good company.

Please see a video of the SHOW HERE!

Upcoming Exhibitions 2025

I am excited to start off the new year with two exhibitions, and appreciate the opportunity to share and commune with others, near and far.

DWELLINGS: An Exhibition of Inhabited Spaces
January 2 – February 2, 2025

I am thrilled to participate in the exhibition: “DWELLINGS: An Exhibition of Inhabited Spaces” at ARTLINK, at the Auer Center for Arts and Culture, Fort Wayne, Indiana. I love to get my work involved in events and shows all across the country and in areas not considered major art centers, and off the edges of the US. I find the commitment and caliber of shows, curators/jurors, artists and work to be audacious and  inspiring on all fronts. “For the exhibition DWELLINGS, juried Steve Garst, Artlink invited artists to submit works of any media that involve homes, shelters, forts, nests, burrows, or any other forms of inhabited space used by humans or non-humans.
