Unlikely Heroes: Christine Ferrouge and Samuelle Richardson

October 8 at 12pm

+19

West Oakland

Two Oakland artists find heroism in the overlooked. Ferrouge's towering paintings cast her daughters as forest guardians surveying fire-scarred Sierra Nevada landscapes, while Richardson's stitched creatures wield quiet power against the odds. Rough textures and blood-red accents bind their work into one spellbinding meditation on resilience.
