Motherhood has radically transformed my creative practice and community, so I’m pleased to share a glimpse of that process as a part of the exhibition Extended Self: Transformations and Connections, at the Hyde Park Art Center through January 19th, 2020. Curated by Angela Lopez and Sara Holwerda of Extended Practice, the exhibition explores how motherhood has shaped the work of contemporary artists, including Selina Trepp, Kaitlynn Redell, Wisdom Baty, Jessica Mueller, and Irene Perez, among many others. In the reading room, you’ll find my Creative Kinship Diagram, charting linkages between people, projects, and collectives focused on art, caregiving, and activism - from the speculative to the pragmatic - alongside two of the publication projects I produced through my work with the creative platform Cultural ReProducers: the collaborative zine “Propositions, Manifestos and Experiments,” published by Half Letter Press, and my “Art Fair Adventure Book,” which came out just last month.
