WomanArtist
A Studio Gallery Staff Exhibit

Atiya Dorsey, Lydia Embry, Halley Sun Stubis, Samantha Van Heest
Curated by Halley Sun Stubis

Wednesday, March 27th through Saturday, April 20th, 2024

WomanArtist features four Studio Gallery staff members, including Director Halley Sun Stubis, Curator and Fellows Manager Atiya Dorsey, and former gallery associates Lydia Embry and Samantha Van Heest.

As women artists, this exhibit explores the role of womanhood (and by extension, girlhood) in their identities. What does it mean to be a woman artist, and how does gender mold our experiences and ways of creation? Through WomanArtist, Dorsey, Embry, Stubis, and Van Heest touch on the narrative intimacies often intertwined in the overarching experience of womanhood. This exhibit features paintings, photographic collages, and mixed-media works.
