Juried Exhibition: Layering-Collage Mixed Media Hosted by NAWA

Mary Ahern Artist Posted on by

My collage using Color Aid paper, Nude Descending a Staircase – Next Step, was juried into the
National Association of Women Artists Layering Exhibition.

This online show will be on view from
September 10 – November 5, 2021.
An online Reception will be held on September 16, 2021 from 5-6pm

This artwork of mine is from an uncertain period of my life and reflects how, at the time, I was looking into myself and deciding where my life was taking me, what journey I was thinking of embarking upon. The concentrated gazing at my personal self, the potential for missteps and danger in those decisions I was contemplating are all the forces behind this work.
