A place where we can be together
A group show curated by Claire de Carteret at Stanley Street Gallery. A place where we can be together is inspired by the work of Gloria Anzaldúa. It is interested in facilitating a space for multiple realities and mythologies to sit besides one another. Presenting the work of nine early and mid-career artists — Francesca Zak, Garden Reflexxx & Stelly G, Lily Golightly, Lottie Braun, Maria Wang, Mika Benesh, Paula do Prado, Samantha Jade, Serwah Attafuah — the exhibition invites each artist to share their own mythologies; poeticising friendship, portals, emotion, forgotten knowledges, ancestral connections, and world making.
The exhibition is on from May 25 to June 18, 2022. Join me and the other artists for artists talks on Saturday June 18th from 2-4pm. More information and artists talks RSVP here
My work Abya Yala, 2022 (pictured below) and a collection of painted gourds from 2012 are included in this exhibition. Abya Yala is a major new work and I have produced an accompanying e-zine to expand on the themes of place and re-mapping ancestral and spiritual connections and relationships. You can download the zine below.
