P.6 Artist Brooke Pickett will be in conversation with P.6 Co-Artistic Director Miranda Lash about her series of paintings What To Eat, What to Drink, What To Leave for Poison, showing on the 4th floor of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. The seven paintings included in the exhibition center the performance of female domesticity in the face of ecological disaster. Pulling from traditional on womanhood, domesticity, and the concept that a woman’s work is to make hard things beautiful, tolerable, and digestible, the new work addresses themes of climate change, homemaking, materiality, mourning, and rebuilding.
