RESIST / PERSIST
On September 17, 2024, Deborah Krall, an octogenarian, launched an exhibit of previous and new work at Hollenbeck Palms, the retirement community where she resides, proving that creativity and activism have no age barriers. The resident-organized exhibition will run until Oct. 31.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
“As a politically curious and active woman, teacher, artist, and collector of small, shiny objects, I have acquired bags full of campaign pins of varying sizes, colors, and sentiments. About 15 years ago, I began using this material in collages. In this series, RESIST /PERSIST, I wallow in color, texture, and symmetry. The more I produced these collages, the more people offered me their collections of campaign pins. These pins support causes such as public schools, unions, reproductive freedom, and peace. I have been attracted to art all my life and have been a member of Mother Art, (motherart.org) a feminist artcollective, since 1980.”
