A juried exhibition featuring artists from the National Association of Women Artists Massachusetts Chapter.
Champion gymnast Simone Biles exemplifies a growing trend in placing self-care above ambition. Similarly, workers in all fields were prompted by the Covid-19 slow-down to re-examine their lives and leave their jobs in droves to pursue freedom and fulfillment. The impact of social isolation, working from home, remote learning, and stimulus checks on attitudes toward ambition and success are staggering. Careers, money, family, health, housing, location, and politics are in the air. In unprecedented numbers, high-tech workers, teachers, and healthcare professionals alike are leaving their jobs, retiring early, renovating homes, and relocating to other parts of the country to “listen to their bodies,” “follow their dreams,” or “feed their souls.” Many artists experience this shift en masse as they delve deeper into their work, change directions, and expand their view of achievement. This exhibition explores new definitions of success and evolving personal and global perspectives on AMBITION.
