CHESTERTON ART CENTER ANNOUNCES NEW EXHIBITION: CATHY FEEMAN: SHADOW, MOORING + UNDERCURRENTS
February 1–March 26, 2022 * Opening Reception: February 5, 11 AM–2 PM
Chesterton Art Center is pleased to announce a new exhibition from artist Cathy Feeman, titled Shadow, Mooring + Undercurrents. The exhibit is on view February 1–March 26, 2022, with an opening reception on February 5, from 11 AM–2 PM. All exhibitions are free and open to the public.
Feeman’s mixed-media works explore the relationship between our histories, or our perceived histories, and our identities. Referencing physical geography, she names communities as placeholders and purveyors of individual and collective stories to be told, honored, and not forgotten.
“The goal of this project is to make visible what is hidden, or even in danger of being lost; to honor the lives and stories of the women, past and present, who immigrated to this often-forgotten corner of Chicago; and to give light to the undercurrents of these communities and stories, and the erosion of these cultural moorings,” says Feeman.
Due to COVID-19, all visitors are required to properly wear a mask.
