Boston University, Boston, MA June 15 - September 15, 2023

Boston University Art Galleries is pleased to present STUFFED, a group exhibition featuring twelve female artists working at the nexus of quilting, painting, sculpture, and installation. Co-organized by guest curators Mallory A. Ruymann and Leah Triplett Harrington, the exhibition highlights the ways in which contemporary and historical practices that incorporate soft materials offer novel ways of merging material with expression.

Both historical and grounded in a contemporary context, the exhibition offers works from Khadija Aziz, Natalie Baxter, Amelia Briggs, Maria A. Guzmán Capron, L’Merchie Frazier, Jai Hart, BSisters Khaleghi, Anne Libby, Meg Lipke, Elizabeth Murray, Rose Nestler, Courtney Stock, and Nastassja E. Swift.

Together, these twelve artists explore stuffing as a way to embrace new approaches to personal and communal experiences. STUFFED presents these artists together for the first time.
