Summer Residency: June 17 - July 7, 2022 Exhibition On View: July 13 - Sept. 4, 2022 This will be the third in the Timken's popular summer series featuring local artists-in-residence. Following the success of Bhavna Mehta (2018) and Roman de Salvo (2019), we have invited Marianela de la Hoz to produce new work within the museum. De la Hoz is an admired painter whose work has been displayed in museums in Mexico and the United States. For the Timken, she proposes to complete a series of small-scaled works loosely based on the narrative of Penelope, a key character in Homeric myth, who uses weaving (and unweaving) as a clever strategy for delaying the pursuits of her suitors until her husband, Odysseus, returns from war.
