Seeking Care

Associate Member Online Exhibition
Curated by Daniel Zeese + Georgina Lewis

 
 

August 5–30, 2020

At different scales, we are at once turning inwardly to ourselves and outwardly to the world around us to seek care. We see it in our mental health, the health of our community, and the health of our planet. A meditation on an everyday object or space functions as a prompt. Care may also radiate outwards from an object—the gesture of conferring solace on the viewer as on the creator. Similarly, even the practice of making creates a space for our own self-care, often with a rippled effect outside of our control. This exhibition will provide a way for viewers to pause and reflect upon the work of our Associate Members as they guide us through their respective lenses of where and how they seek care.

Exhibiting Artists
John Baker, Katherine Borkowski-Byrne, Linda DeStefano Brown, Brenda Cirioni, John Daly, Susan Greer Emmerson, Nan Hass Feldman, Catherine Gibbs, Pat Paxson, Shany Porras, and Jill Pottle.
