Join us for the opening of Foto Forum‘s sixth annual members show! Maternal Mitochondria’s piece “Hephaestus Triumphant” will be shown, along with many other works. The opening is Friday, February 7th, from 5-7pm.
The Last Breath: Death & Contemporary Art
Maternal Mitochondria will be showing new work at this show with Womenswork.art in Poughkeepsie. It is a vulnerable series, where I photographed my mother in a New Mexican slot canyon (a la Laura Aguilar) after her cancer diagnosis.

Lenscratch: MOTHER Exhibition
My mom and I have a piece in the Lenscratch: MOTHER show, and there is a ton of really lovely, strong work!
Woman Made Gallery
I will be in an upcoming show at Woman Made Gallery in Chicago! The 24th International Open runs from March 18th-April 22nd, and all of the work can be viewed online as well. Please contact the gallery for sale inquires.
Best in Show
I was surprised and very excited to receive “Best in Show” at this years Members’ Show with Foto Forum. It’s nice to know that my tired mom art was seen and appreciated by other tired parents!
For those who don’t know, Foto Forum Santa Fe is an amazing non-profit photography space in Santa Fe. They have all the equipment you need to do alternative processes and work in a darkroom! It also happens to be down the street from where I grew up.
And since personally I always want to know how a photograph was made- this was taken and mostly edited on an android phone.
