X Days of Y, the debut art show of Molly Ampersand McLeod, features selected works from 4 years of her daily art practice. Beautifying the walls of the Telegraph Room at East Bay Community Space since June, the show is coming down to make room for more artists to share their work! Join us for a celebratory show closing to get up close and personal with Molly’s work.
🖼Original artworks for sale will be highly discounted – purchase framed original art right off the wall, and take it home with you! Pieces start at only $40. Signed copies of the Letters to a Friend postcard book and miscellaneous zines will be also available for purchase.
✍🏼From photo collage and watercolor words to zines and intimate letters to friends – Molly invites us to consider our own daily creative practice through the lens of our relationships with others and with ourselves.
Selected works include:
❓100 Days of Questions: thought-provoking, whimsical, and provocative questions
✍🏼 100 Days of Words: meditations on the power of words and their meaning
💌 31 Days of Letters to a Friend: empathetic and joyful reflections on friendship
📓 30 Days of Zines: a collection of mini one-of-a-kind books about mindfulness, introspection, and humorous observations
🎲 31 Days of Games: beautiful suggestions for interacting with the world and your friends a little more playfully
…and more.
