Ceramicists Savannah Jacob and Abby Jo Elle are co-curating "Respect Your Mother," a group exhibition at Patina Gallery dedicated to climate change and environmental activism. Opening in honor of Earth Day, the show features works from over 50 artists across various mediums, including sculptures, collages, and paintings, with a strict prohibition on artificial intelligence to emphasize human-centric craft.
This exhibition highlights the growing intersection of local grassroots art communities and global environmental concerns. By creating a physical space for dialogue and connection, the curators aim to combat the isolation often felt in climate activism while supporting local creators through the sale of their work.
