On this week's episode of Out and About, Dr. Mae Gilliland Wright of ArtsPartners of Central Illinois chats with artist Barbie Perry about her art installation Hope Chest on display now through Oct. 18 at the Contemporary Art Center of Peoria. In this installation, Perry employs doilies as mandalas encouraging women to contemplate the dissonance of their hope and suppression throughout history and to celebrate the limitless potential of their spirits.
You can talk with Perry about her work on Sept. 6, as well as Sept. 21 at 6:30-8:30 p.m. and Oct. 4 at 6:30 p.m. at the CAC. Find more information here.
