The Women's Room at HVCCA

Since early October, my video Casual Encounters: A Month of Sundays has been playing at the Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art in Peekskill, NY, as part of the show The Women's Room: Female Perspectives on Men, Women, Family and Nation" curated by Marcy B. Freedman and Livia Straus. This weekend, though, brought a good reminder to go see the show before it closes in December: the New York Times ran a piece about the show, "Personal Ways of Untangling the Political" by Susan Hodara. The show runs through December 7, and will feature a panel discussion on December 6. Works include videos by eight internationally-based artists, many of whom I met at the opening. Here's an install shot of the video (you can watch it here).

A Conversation with the artists of '20 in Their Twenties'

This weekend I'll be at Woman Made Gallery (685 N. Milwaukee) discussing my piece in the show 20 in Their Twenties. The talk is from 2pm-4pm on Sunday, February 12. Woman Made Gallery is proud to host an artist talk in conjunction with its current group exhibition ‘20 in Their Twenties’. Led by juror and solo show artist Betsy Odom, the event will feature a number of artists from ‘20 in Their Twenties’. The talk will focus on the art pieces presented in the exhibition, their relationship to one another, and to any larger understanding we have of art-making by younger women.
