All Flourishing Is Mutual

My exhibition All Flourishing Is Mutual debuts in two weeks at DeVero Farms & Winery in Sonoma, CA. The exhibition is in collaboration with The Farm Studio- a nonprofit based in Sonoma county that nurtures collaboration with local ecologies through farming and art.

The exhibition reception is on Sunday, July 7th between 1:30 - 4pm. I’ll be exhibiting 4 large paintings and a variety of smaller paintings and prints from my Women in Agriculture and Herbal Mandala series. I hope to see you at the reception if you are in the Sonoma area!

Additionally, I’ll be giving an artist talk on Tuesday, July 9th between 5:30 - 7:00pm, and hosting an Herbal Mandala workshop on Wednesday, July 10th from 5:30 - 7:00pm. All events are ticketed, and tickets can be purchased online at the DaVero website. The exhibition runs through the end of August, 2024.

ALIS Design+ Conference and Trade Fair, January 24 - 25 2024

I'm excited to announce that I have four paintings from my Absence and Presence series at the ALIS Design+ Conference and Trade Fair, January 24 - 25 in Los Angeles. I am exhibiting my work with DAC Art Consulting alongside works by Christina Kwan. I’m excited to share some photos of the installation below.

ALIS Design+ is a conference and trade fair where distinguished thought leaders from hotel ownership, investment, development, design, procurement, construction, architecture, and consultancy come together for a discussion on the industry’s future. Together, they engage in forward-looking conversations, diving into best practices and pioneering solutions that elevate creativity and ingenuity.

Post-Reception- Thank you!

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to the opening reception of my solo show “Simulated Memory” at She/They Gallery! It was an awesome opening, and we had a really great turn out- it was so much fun to have the opening on the same night as the Santa Ana Art Walk. I’m very appreciative for all the friends and new faces that turned up at the gallery to see my work. Much thanks to the friends who came out for my private walk-through. The show is up by appointment until September 27th. Please contact Renée Ortiz of She/They Gallery to make an appointment.
