In the exhibition "A-dress: Power and Belief," artist Irma Sofia Poeter considers the dress as a sculptural language, a second skin where personal and collective narratives meet. Repurposing industrial textiles, recycled, and artisanal fabrics, Poeter creates dresses, capes and soft sculptures that trace how meaning is stitched into what we wear, and how the act of wearing becomes a form of expression. Here, the dress operates as both object and argument. It asks how identity is armored or softened, how beliefs are worn and sometimes unraveled. This creative approach to the garment reflects several decades of exploration by Poeter. We invite you to join us for the reception on Wednesday, October 7, 4 - 7 p.m. Meet the artist and enjoy refreshments. There will also be a conversation with the artist on Wednesday, October 21 at 6 p.m. October 7 also marks the premiere of "Insights into Art with Alessandra Moctezuma," a KPBS Explore digital arts series produced by San Diego Mesa College’s gallery director. Poeter is featured in the first episode, available on KPBS+ and the KPBS Explore YouTube page. Exhibit on view October 5 - 29, 2026. San Diego Mesa College Art Gallery on Facebook / Instagram
