In the city, nature has fences around it. Do you drive to see it? Breaking Ground questions the placement of these raw, natural materials and how we connect to them.

Stephanie Garon’s Breaking Ground explores humanity’s connection to nature through a gallery-wide immersive installation. Garon’s environmental artworks emphasize the fragility of nature through ecologically motivated interventions. Garon takes what we hear about nature and materialized it in her installation work. Whether the viewer navigates their movements through the installation or reflects on the sculptural decomposition of natural materials, the contemplative space explores how we, as people, interrupt the natural world around us. Her environmental artwork has been exhibited internationally in London, Columbia, and South Korea, as well as across the United States. Breaking Ground opens on April 9th 2021 and runs through May 22, 2021.

Honfleur Gallery is delighted to announce the launch of its new Artist-in-Residence program.

This annual program will be a vital realization of the vision of the late Sharon Hughes Gautier to provide artists with the necessities of time and funding to create their work.

This program is a melding of Honfleur’s ongoing commitment to artists that live and work east of the Anacostia River in Washington DC and it brings Sharon’s passion for art and her appreciation of a community that is so incredibly rich with history and creative talent. This residence comes with both specific project funding and a monthly stipend. Funding for this residency is provided by Sharon’s family.

The first recipient will be Jay Sun, a multi-talented artist who grew up and currently lives in Anacostia and uses theater, music, comedy, storytelling and film to communicate with his audiences. He seeks to better the world by sharing thoughts, ideas and theories through various art forms.

Project funding will go towards the production of a film “Life: On The Rocks" written by JaySun. This film depicts how life-long residents of the District of Columbia are feeling the brunt of police brutality and gentrification and how “adjustments” have to be made to survive in a city that is pushing the local residents out of their own communities.

Down In My Soul: Ancestors, Rituals, and Contemporary Practice, a group show from the Washington DC-based duo Asha Elana Casey and Lionel Frazier White, explores the multilayered history of Black spirituality. Both expand notions of kinship by referencing personal experiences and research of diasporic religious and family traditions. In conversation with writer and curator Maleke Glee, the two discuss this body of work as part of the evolution of their artistic practice.

Today I visited @honfleurgallery to witness @kirstylittlejoy ‘s exhibition HOPE. I bloody loved it and if you have a #vagina in your life, I bet you will too. I especially loved the idea of vaginas being like a #venusflytrap ready to lure you in and absolutely destroy you. Vaginas are not just holes.

I forgot to take a picture of me, @natmutch and @mutch_grace enjoying DC art but then I remembered that I am an **artist** and so I’ve forensically recreated the moment here. Thanks for the HOPE, Kirsty 🌮

"Hope", by Kirsty Little, opens in TWO DAYS!
This #exhibition includes the installation “Refuse? REFUSE 1T”. It portrays the number one trillion and speaks of the plastic pollution affecting our #oceans. Its updated version has a section about the new surge of plastic pollution in the form of #PPE carelessly abandoned. The installation is to remind us of our responsibilities to the world at large, even during a #pandemic.
