Welancora Gallery is excited to present With Love and Hope, a dual artist presentation of bronze relief sculpture by Helen Evans Ramsaran (b. 1943) and works on paper by Oasa DuVerney (b. 1979), at Expo Chicago booth 257.
Both artists utilize elements from nature and apply a tender approach to the representation of people of color to explore notions of care, creation, community, and empowerment. Ramsaran’s sculptures celebrate the innocence of girlhood and play, while DuVerney’s drawings shield her figures from the inhumane depictions and beliefs that are often cast upon them.
