Elizabeth Malaska at the Seattle Art Museum

Elizabeth Malaska All Be Your Mirror

Seattle Art Museum
Third Floor Galleries
November 17 - June 16, 2024

 

The exhibition celebrates the Portland-based artist and recent recipient of the 2022 Betty Bowen Award, an annual award honoring the original and compelling vision of contemporary artist's working in the Northwest.


Malaska’s grand tableaux respond to the legacies and narratives of Western art and the power dynamics that often assign women to submissive, objectified roles. Across her body of work, Malaska pulls influence from traditional painting, mythology, nature, literature, and modern advertising to weave threads of connection between humanity, spirituality, society, and the natural realm.
