The exhibit focuses on creative processes as part of the family dynamic, specifically related to women\u2019s experiences as artist-parents, in the context of a conversation around (dis)ability. Work in the exhibit reflects the practice of each artist in a wide creative sense; without always directly referring to family, creative work is by necessity a reflection of an artist\u2019s life as a whole. \u201cLight and Shadow\u201d is a way to honor families, mothers, artists, and creative practice.
