“Connective Thread/ Hilo Conector” aims to create an intentional space for Latina power to thrive through reflection, community building and resource sharing. The exhibition, by Colombian-Minnesotan artist Adriana Gordillo and a collaborative piece with Nena’s Atelier, explores Latina power through what covers, protects, and adorns the body: clothing and accessories. It draws on intergenerational memory and the strength of the artist’s all-women family: Adriana, her grandmother, mother, and aunt, and their bonding through sewing, an undervalued art form considered a craft, mere domestic labor. Scroll down for a detailed description of the pieces included in the exhibition."
