 (April – June 2016)

Lauren curated an exhibition entitled Making Her Mark presented at The Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, Connecticut April 17 – June 5, 2016. The multi-media exhibition featured work by six female, contemporary artists, Claudia DeMonte, Sarah Hinckley, Hayv Kahraman, Toyin Odutola, Francis Ruyter, and Laurie Simmons, ranging from emerging talent to renowned international artists. Such diversity bears witness to their experiences as female artists over the past few decades in an art world often criticized for undervaluing the contributions of deserving women artists. Their professional successes are testament to their talents and are especially compelling at a time of heightened interest in women’s roles in the arts.

These artists each address their personal experiences through their work, yet viewing their work collectively allows the audience to form a broader view of the contemporary social context as the work addresses issues such as feminism, cultural identity, and universalism. The show included a broad range of abstract and representational paintings, drawings, sculpture, and photography.

‘ “Making Her Mark,” a small but stimulating multimedia exhibit that features six diverse women artists, is a remedial step, but it is also a provocative one.” -Tracey O’Shaunessy, Waterbury Republican American
