September 2024 (Banned Book Week)

Banned Book Week

This week, I was proud to participate in my first ever banned book gallery show at @valleycottagelibrary in New York. The book I chose is feminist classic "The Awakening"by Kate Chopin. Written in 1899, it was considered immoral and censored for its frank depictions of sex and desire. Upon its publication, the St. Louis Republic newspaper stated " the book was "poison" and " too strong a drink for mortal babes".

My portraits for the June 2024 group show at City Art Gallery in San Francisco.

From the Gallery:

The Gentle Revolution is proud to present The Pre-Vinylettes’ Suffragette Centennial, an exhibition of hand painted signs taking place at Portland’s Ford Gallery between September 26 – October 25, 2020. The exhibition is the second iteration of the Pre-Vinylettes womxn sign painters’ event and features an international array of more than sixty five artists whose work displays the wide range of experience, skill, and technique evident in the sign painting world today. In addition to the exhibition’s focus on sign painting and its interpretations, the Pre-Vinylettes’ Suffragette Centennial is also a call to action to continue the necessary work of protecting and advancing the rights of all marginalized people.

Here’s a peek at the other pieces from the show.
