@ Woman Made Gallery

Opening Friday, August 7th, from 12PM - 6PM

On view through Saturday, August 29th

Woman Made Gallery (WMG) is pleased to present “Process and Material,” an exhibition that highlights both the artists’ unparalleled applications in fabrication and pioneering approaches to the materials to cultivate the communication between each artist’s creative practice and their experimentation with the materials’ limits.

The curator, Yoonshin Park, approached the jury process with several goals in mind: providing a fresh and stimulating perspective to our viewers, offering a notable platform to new and emerging artists, and allowing established artists to continue to communicate through their newer work. From a large pool of 600+ works, Yoonshin Park selected both two- and three-dimensional works by 35 artists for this exhibition.

Exhibiting Artists: Danielle Andress, Heather Baker, Cathie Bleck, Collette Broeders, Barb Cone, Melissa Jay Craig, Sherri Denault, Emily Elhoffer, Raquel Esquives, Carlynn Forst, Tanya Gill, Karen Gubitz, Yvette Kaiser Smith, Millicent Kennedy, Amelia Key, Lialia Kuchma, Jill Lanza, Camila Linaweaver, Tai Lipan, Jennifer Mannebach, Iz Mozer, Jodi Patterson, Cory Peeke, Kelly Pelka, CV Peterson, Gina Lee Robbins, Janice Roberts, Heather Schulte, Pamela Shipley, Corrin Smithson McWhirter, Harin Song, Kristen Tordella-Williams, Julie Weber, Holly Wong, Donna Zarbin-Byrne.

Curator: Yoonshin Park works with sculptural papers, artist books, and installation. Her main media concentration is pulp, paper, and artist books. Her interest in the comprehensive processes of paper-making and book-binding enables her work to encompass various elements woven into complete objects. She received her M.A. and M.F.A. in Interdisciplinary Book and Paper Arts from Columbia College Chicago. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. She was born in Seoul, South Korea, and currently resides in Chicago, IL. For more information, visit https://www.yoonshinpark.com/.
