From Sophie Calle’s major UK exhibition to Mira Schor’s feminist paintings and Saya Woolfalk’s imaginative worlds, discover five important art news stories highlighting women artists from this past week.
Linda Edwards creates paintings rooted in the landscapes, traditions, and everyday life of Saddleworth, where she has lived for more than thirty years. Working mainly in oils, she captures quiet streets, changing light, local characters, natural landscapes, and community traditions, treating her paintings as a kind of visual diary of the place she calls home
Kavya Sharma creates textile-based artworks that bring together embroidery, drawing, and installation to explore memory, care, the body, and women’s lived experiences. Rather than choosing a medium first, she begins with an idea and allows the work to determine how it should take shape.
Mickel Celest creates richly layered abstract paintings that explore colour, texture, transformation, and the beauty found in change. Working intuitively, she begins with a palette or feeling rather than a fixed image, allowing each painting to develop through layers of paint, collage, texture, and metallic elements.
Andrea Eichelberg creates colourful abstract paintings shaped by emotions, memories, travel, and everyday experiences. Working mainly in acrylic and pastel, she approaches each canvas intuitively, beginning with a feeling or question rather than a finished image.
Soohyun Aria Jo creates multidisciplinary art that brings together visual art, classical voice, storytelling, film, writing, and audience participation. Her work is rooted in the belief that everyone already carries their own unique light, even when they lose sight of it.
Shona Elrick creates abstract landscapes using painted newsprint collage, oil, and acrylic, drawing deeply from the skies, coastlines, and farmland of Aberdeenshire. Her distinctive process began when she noticed landscape-like forms in the spontaneous marks left on newsprint while cleaning her brushes.
Dominika Luszcz creates contemporary portraits of women surrounded by flower wreaths, embroidered textiles, and earthy colors inspired by Polish folklore. Her paintings explore heritage, identity, nature, renewal, and belonging while reinterpreting traditional imagery through her own contemporary style.
Only two weeks remain to submit to The Things We Feel, Women in Arts Network’s international virtual exhibition exploring the memories, emotions and experiences that find their way into art.
