A Maternal Gaze redefines what it means to see—and to be seen.

Through the work of Miwa Gardner and Ramona Lee, care becomes an active force: shaping perception, holding complexity, and challenging distance between viewer and subject.

This is a gaze that is intentional, embodied, and transformative—one that asks you to slow down, look closer, and consider what it means to truly hold space.

📅 On view: April 22 – May 31
🎉 Opening Reception: April 25 | 5–7 PM

Step into it. Stay with it. Let it shift you.
