Sustainers of Life

Sustainers of Life, co-curated by Cecelia Caro and Laurie Steelink, features seven artists exploring intersectional themes through diverse media. The exhibition addresses colonialism's impact, motherhood, and the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis while also celebrating individual stories of resilience and survival.

Artists Weshoyot Alvitre, Emily Clarke, Katie Dorame, Eve-Lauryn Little Shell LaFountain, Cara Romero, Corey Stein, and Linda Vallejo create works that depict Native and Indigenous women as multidimensional beings. Honoring women as sustainers of cultural knowledge and community healing, this exhibition weaves together personal narratives within broader historical contexts. The exhibition creates space for both mourning losses and celebrating the ongoing resilience of those who nurture and protect life.

Sustainers of Life will be on view through December 6th at Angels Gate Cultural Center at 3601 S. Gaffey Street. The gallery is open to the public Thursday ? Saturday from 10am ? 5pm.
