OPENING TONIGHT October 15, 6-8pm Ellen Lesperance The Land of Feminye October 15 – November 12, 2022 Opening reception: Saturday, October 15, 6–8 pm Derek Eller Gallery is pleased to present The Land of Feminye, a solo exhibition of new paintings on paper, sweaters, and terra-cotta sculptures by Ellen Lesperance. Expanding upon her exploration of the visual language embedded in hand-made garments worn by women engaged in acts of empowerment, Lesperance turns to the distinctive clothing of the Amazons, a nation of all-female warriors whose battles were chronicled in Greek mythology and depicted in art from the 4th Century BCE, particularly red-figure pottery. #ellenlesperance #derekellergallery
