And Now We Are Mommies

About the work

2022, acrylic paint & pen on dura-lar, chenille stems, 58"h x 175"w x 6"d "And Now We Are Mommies" is a response to the Supreme Court's 2022 Roe v. Wade decision. My mother graduated from Columbia Law School ten years before Ruth Bader Ginsberg. They were colleagues at Rutgers Law School where my mother was the Assistant Dean and Ruth Bader Ginsberg a professor. This was the milieu I grew up in. Because of this personal connection, I chose to use quotes from Ruth Bader Ginsberg for the writings in this piece.
