Each artist presents their narratives through diverse artistic methods, combining personal history with cultural commentary.
Greenwell uses traditional painting materials alongside upcycled ephemera to create mixed-media paintings that evoke confrontational feminist themes, challenging traditional narratives of femininity.
Quispe's 'patchwork paintings' are created through various quilting techniques, reflecting the tensions between traditional femininity and modern interpretations, creating a dialogue between generations.
