Saturday Tea Time at CAMP

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our opening reception and curator talk, as your presence and enthusiasm set the stage for a powerful exhibition.

Join us from 2:00 to 5:00 PM, as we welcome artists Laetitia Adam-Rabel, Rosa Henriquez, and Kim Moore for a discussion on how their works challenge traditional narratives on women's rights and power, using fiber art to address themes such as political inequality, bodily autonomy, and the collective strength of women throughout history.

The first in a series of artist panels for our annual fiber exhibition, 77 Women Pulling at the Threads of Social Discourse: We Got The Power, invites you to make a habit of stopping by every Saturday, between 2-5pm for the next two months, for more in-depth conversations with featured artists and special guests!

Sign up below to RSVP for the artist talk.

“The Contemporary Art Modern Project’s interpretation, like many modern and post-modern interpretations, centers a markedly non-male, intersectional gaze... How do we go from the violence and harm inherent to misogyny, sexism, disenfranchisement—and a downright alienating male attitude that won’t quit—to a showcasing of the power of authentic unity, deliberately contextualized outside of it?”

—co-curator Maria Gabriela Di Giammarco

This month, we're shining a spotlight on Westport-based artist Liz Leggett, known for her dynamic, process-driven abstractions that pulse with texture and energy. Leggett’s work is an exploration of balance and control, leaving the interpretation open to the viewer’s visceral response. Discover more about Liz’s creative process and her newest body of work in our full interview below.

"The marks are a channel for me to get my inner thoughts and emotions out, so the lines to me are often tracings of tension and frustration but also of catharsis and energy... I love working in flesh tones and pinks and hot pinks–there is no doubt an association with these colors that scream female, and I have no problem with that!"

—Liz Legget
