Rooted
Rooted is a multidisciplinary group exhibition that presents a collection of artwork created by women that were born, raised and reside in Frisco. This exhibition unearths and weaves the often absent female gaze to demonstrate the inextricable ties we hold to our environments, inviting us to reflect on the connections to the places we call home.
Calling to the familiar ficus trees planted in the 1980鈥檚 along 24th Street, Rooted is a tapestry of personal narratives of the artists鈥� lived experiences and surroundings. These narratives are brought to life through a wide range of art mediums that reclaim the self and community memory. By observing the mundane and venerating it as a cultural emblem, each artwork acts as an independent lens through which we can grasp many intimate and unique aspects of the artists鈥� ties to this city. The convergence of these artists and their work welcomes you to understand, admire and connect to themes that are constant and central to their lives: inner child memories, the honoring of family lineage, intersectional community, religious and spiritual reverence, stories of loss and love, and fragments of their everyday lives.
Documented through a zine publication, Rooted seeks to uplift these women鈥檚 stories as artists and their interconnected spirit driven by creativity, the love they hold for San Francisco, and the passion they have for their work. Join us in celebrating this remarkable intersection of art and identity, as we share the depths of inspiration found within the hearts of Frisco.
