ICA SF Curator Christine Koppes is in the house! I’m finishing-up a commission for Sunnyvale’s new City Hall development, and was thrilled to visit with @christinekoppes and have her eyes on my 9’ x 11’ tapestry. She brought along her adorable son Brooks who is a big fan of textiles, especially the neon yarns. 🧶 We talked about art and life and the art of juggling motherhood and a demanding career. I vividly remember those days— rich and rewarding and also stressful. Sending zen vibes to all the moms out there🥰 I’m thrilled that we have the @icasanfrancisco in the Bay, and looking forward to the current show Resting Our Eyes curated by @tfresh and @autumnbreon. I’m super excited about Christine’s upcoming summer programming—including exhibitions by LA artists @patrick_martinez_studio and @hayvkahraman and local painter @rupyctut . Good stuff!👍🙏🙌 Images: Christine, Brooks and the tapestry. Tapestry details.
