Women’s Work was initiated by artist Izita Kerr as a platform for women artists to explore the issues of everyday life through their art, through annual exhibitions which are timed to approximately coincide with International Women’s Day on 8th March, and which are accompanied by community events such as workshops for families and children. The exhibitions have received much critical acclaim for the wealth of talent, vitality and innovation that they attract from artists all over this country and abroad.

14^th Annual Exhibition

M a d e t o F i t

The Willis Museum, Basingstoke

20 March to 17 April 2010

Themes in the past have included both the personal and the socially orientated: for example ‘Positive Women’ explored issues of HIV and human rights; ‘Identity’ considered issues of both personal and community identity both stable and unstable; ‘Mother’ and ‘Secrets’ focused on more intimate relationships between friends and within the family; and ‘Renewal’ was concerned in a more mythical way with problems of regeneration in situations of death or decadence, both environmental and spiritual.

Following last year’s success with L i t t l e W o m e n ! the exhibition this year will again be unthemed, and once again we are inviting submission of small works which can be enclosed within CD cases, or 3D work which is no more than 150mm in any dimension. We hope for a broad range of themes and media. The workshops will follow the same pattern.
