THE HUMAN CONDITION EXHIBITION
ATHANEAUM GALLERY, ALEXANDRIA FEB 16 - MARCH 22, 2020
The magnificent Atheneaum Gallery in Old Town Alexandria presented a select number of works that addressed The Human Condition. One of my Selfie paintings was on show. Besides exploring the physical form, artists were asked to consider how a person's personality, emotions, challenges, preferences, and experiences can be visually represented. In the age of selfies, one is continually studying oneself as an objective observer. This was the last physical exhibition of my work before the reality of the CORONA virus began to affect every aspect of our lives.

TO HEAL THE WORLD
June 15 - 18 August, 2020
My ceramic sculpture, Generations, was selected for inclusion in CARAVAN's To Heal The World. This work was created with a heavy heart, yet with a semblance of hope for the future. My fears for our beautiful planet are tempered by the hope that our mistakes will not be repeated by generations to come. And it appears that there is indeed a groundswell of youth who are ready to stand up and protect that which we abused –
the healing will come and the young will climb on the shoulders of the elderly to forge a new world.

ESPRIT DE FRANCE Exhibition and workshop
Western Wyoming Community College Gallery OCT - NOV 2018
Western Wyoming Community College exhibited my French Girls mixed media series in a two-woman show with collage artist, Lili Francuz.
It was a pleasure to teach a 3-day intensive workshop on collage technique in conjunction with the show. Collage is one of the most democratic of mediums requiring at its very basic, a pair of scissors, glue, and found scraps of paper. Picasso and Braque were the first artists to use pre- existing materials in their art.

MILGROM ARTICLE ON MORANDI/DE WAAL
Ceramics Monthly Magazine, June Quarterly edition 2018
I was fortunate enough to experience a stunning exhibition at Stockholm's Artipelag Museum last year: 'Morandi/Edmund de Waal'. Everything about this exhibition was designed to inspire stillness, encourage contemplation, and amplify the sounds of silence. To experience the Morandi/Edmund de Waal exhibition was to divorce oneself from the chaos of the modern world.

FINALIST: CROSS MACKENZIE HOLIDAY CLAY COMPETITION
District Clay Center 2018
My work was selected by one of the leading national galleries known for showcasing ceramic art. The sculpture (left) is from a series interweaving figurative human elements and representatives from the natural world may appear whimsical at first glance. Upon closer inspection however, one can discern an underlying darker narrative. They are the antithesis of the smooth and shiny figurine tradition.
