Six local visual artists —Amy Berk, Edith Hillinger, Brooke Holve, Anne Lamborn, Mary Curtis Ratcliff, and CCA Painting/Drawing professor Elizabeth Sher—attended the same artist residency program in New Zealand, all at different times.
In this exhibition, they present work in a variety of media, demonstrating the ways the experience shaped their individual practices, speaking to the nature of retreat, and the transformative potential of artist residencies, which provide a respite for artists to simply witness and create.
