The Big & Small of It
Women. Artists. Masters.
January 15–March 12, 2022
Debra Keirce, Carrie Waller, and Maria Bennett Hock are collectively known as WAM—Women. Artists. Masters.
Their representational paintings in this exhibition highlight the ways big and small work together. Keirce’s palm-sized oil miniatures, some so small they are hidden in boxes, are often created under magnification. Bennett Hock paints on large canvases that draw viewers in, her works built from bold, loose strokes in oils. Walker masterfully splashes watercolors with intricate nuances and dramatic light. Together, the work by these three artists invites viewers to both lean in and step back for the experience.
