From Childhood to Creative Practice: Symbols and Stories Reimagined
Cupola Contemporary Art presents Thursday’s Child – The Roots of Wonder, a captivating exhibition by artist Jennie McCall, exploring how childhood experiences continue to shape her creative practice. The show coincides with the release of her memoir, Thursday’s Child – A Memoir, in which McCall reflects on her father’s suicide, being raised by a single parent, and the formative experiences that continue to echo through the symbolism of her art.
Visitors will experience the full breadth of her work, from ceramics and sculptures—hearts, nests, busts, large plates, and whales—to posters, an audio collage of interviews and spoken word, and fragments of songs from her past, creating a rich dialogue between her earliest influences and her work today.
