Patsy Cox: Mouthpiece

This exhibition features artwork made since the inauguration of our current president. Cox attempts to capture a personal reaction in the work that is all-encompassing and visceral. It comes from a place of shock, confusion and contradiction. She feels that this body of work is a retort to the changes in our long-held ideals of freedom and liberty as generated and postured by those that express the opinions and beliefs of our new governmental leadership. Mouthpiece represents spokespersons, officials, media, or other entities that convey the challenging sentiments of a new time.
