In Woman Veritas
JANUARY 2007
The Point of Contact Gallery
A reflection on women, In Woman Veritas gave the viewer a chance to examine different creative processes and to ask questions about the ways in which truth is manifest in women. Each piece explored a variety of gray areas between reality and what we, and the artist, perceive as reality, or truth. In fact, truth can arise from a process of searching, or, conversely, can be expressed in an instant. The exhibit revolves around this idea of truth and perspective, and we are encouraged to explore both the artists’ perspectives of truth, and our own.
