Exhibition Opening: Transformation, Ritual, Renewal
Join us for the exhibition opening of Transformation, Ritual, Renewal, Saturday, November 15, 5-7 PM
Marmo is pleased to present Transformation, Ritual, Renewal, a group exhibition featuring the work of Maria Bressler, Denise Cline, Llyn De Danaan, Catherine Alice Michaelis, Max Nordile, Karyssa Pacheco, Rachel Svinth, and Molly Wheatbaker.
Grounded in the myth of Persephone, her descent into the underworld each autumn, her time below, and her return with the spring, Transformation, Ritual, Renewal traces the quiet thresholds where change takes root. This cyclical passage between worlds speaks to enduring rhythms of change: decay and germination, grief and restoration, endings that fold imperceptibly into beginnings.

Film Screening | Alexis Clements
Marmo Gallery and the Shelton Film Society Present:
Hypatia Artist-In-Residence, Alexis Clements
THERE MUST BE A WORD
Written and directed by Alexis Clements
Short film and handmade Riso-printed zine
An exploration of place, queer identity, and desire, this piece asks questions about how place shapes the ways our identities are realized, and the ways in which categorizing/naming our selves both shapes us and invites resistance. The project draws on the work of scholars and artists such as bell hooks, Trinh T. Minh-ha, Japonica Brown-Saracino, Larry Mitchell, and Lauren Berlant.
Ages 18+ This film contains nudity; minors are allowed with adult supervision.

Writing Workshop with Charlotte Gross
EMBODIED WRITING | Reconnecting to Ourselves and the Living World Through Stories
In this workshop, we will get out of our heads and into our animal selves to write the stories only we can tell. What is our sensory, sensual experience of our surroundings? In what ways are we woven into the ecosystems we inhabit? And in what ways might we explore and map our inner terrain like we do the land we walk on?
Together we will respond to prompts and writing invitations; craft short fiction and/or essays; and offer each other encouraging feedback. Whether you have an existing writing practice or are new to writing creatively but are seeking a more meaningful connection with your inner self and the natural world, this course is for you.
Materials provided | Free/public | RSVP Required: Sign up here
