It’s been a great while since I’ve posted here on my news page, and what better time to do so, to share a bit of news!
I’m thrilled to share that I’m participating in two exhibitions for the first time in many years: “Our Solo Show” which is a collective effort expanding the idea of a traditional solo exhibition with Jean Shin, Hasan Elahi, Mel Potter, Miguel Luciano and Edgar Arceneaux at Engage-Projects through December 4, 2021 in Chicago; and “That was Then, This is Now,” group exhibition at Signs & Symbols in their brand new home located at 249 E Houston Street in the Lower East Side, NYC through December 21, 2021.
Both exhibitions include work never shown before:
—At Engage Projects, in collaboration with Owner and Director Jennifer Armetta, I have new paintings and glass sculptures, both inspired by the pandemic, going back to my roots in painting and glass installations I’ve been doing for years. “The Barriers” are comprised of works on paper, paintings and glass sculptures. Check them out!
—At signs and symbols, Mitra Khorasheh selected “Flaps,” my first digital print made at Massachusetts College of Art’s professional press with a master printer back in 1999. The work is of an installation of the same name made a few years before, and one of my very first installations. You can see the print here on my website.
I hope you’ll be able to check out both exhibitions either in person or online! Both are amazing contexts to the work with the brilliant curation of all of the strong women who run these two galleries. Many thanks to all!
