“Cleopatra at the Café,” (now showing at East Window), Sherry Wiggins and Luís Branco, 2023

It has been great exhibiting Luís Filipe Branco and my work from “The Heroines Project” in multiple shows in Boulder and Denver over the last several months.  Rocky Mountain PBS videographer Lindsey A. Ford came to my studio in Boulder, recently, and we spent time talking about my intentions and process in making this performative work with my heroines such as Eve, Cleopatra, Helen of Troy, Sappho and others. We talked about the series “Cleopatra at the Cafe,” and the two pieces we are currently exhibiting at East Window gallery in Boulder in the group exhibit “Aging Bodies, Myths and Heroines” curated by Todd Edward Herman. The exhibit at East Window is up through February 28^th. More of the Cleopatra Series (and the Isis Series) will be showing in a group show at Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art curated by Jane Burke that will be opening at the end of January 2024. Lindsey did a wonderful job of interviewing me and she gives a good glimpse into my practice and studio.
