HOME
@ Woman Made Gallery
Opening Saturday, July 11th, from 2PM - 3PM
On view through Friday, July 31st
Woman Made Gallery (WMG) is pleased to present “HOME, A Virtual Exhibition” with work by 123 artists from the United States, Canada, Germany, Italy, Nigeria, and the United Kingdom.
Due to COVID-19, the theme of home is particularly relevant. Stay-at-home orders have affected our lives greatly. Home is often presumed to be a safe sanctuary or retreat where we can reconnect with ourselves, but that is not the experience for many who face trauma and violence at home or who do not have a stable home to go to.
In her juror’s statement, Jennifer Weigel reflects on the entries: “In jurying HOME for Woman Made Gallery, I was drawn to the diversity of expression and willingness to share our most intimate moments: our laughs, loves, and losses. How we see our homes is very much a reflection of how we see ourselves. What is important to us? What dark thoughts lurk in the closet or under the bed and keep us up at night? What lights our way to carry us through our dark times, and what gives us cause to sing and dance in the kitchen? Home is a reflection of where we are in our lives, where we have been, and where we are going.”
About her work Togetherness from the M”other” Series (right image) Tulika Ladsariya writes: “In my newly re-created home studio, I have focused on combining my 4-year-old daughter’s sketches, my paintings, and my mother’s crocheted works. Currently, we are coping with our ennui, anxiety, and frustration through making art– my daughter and I in the U.S. and her grandmother in India. Through these narrative works, I attempt to bring together these three women artists from across generations and borders and remind us that no matter where we are physically, our sentiments and frustrations are real. Our losses, anxieties, and fears are real. Our love, albeit virtual, is real. These works will document these sentiments and foster a dialogue of commonality of experience across the globe.”
