"Sisterhood" Hand-Crafted Mixed Media Artwork on Canvas 20Hx20Wx1.5D by Erin McGrath Rieke
ABOUT
Sisterhood (2023) by interdisciplinary activist artist Erin McGrath Rieke is a 20x20 mixed media work on canvas that interweaves acrylic paint with fragments of vintage novel pages and musical scores, forming a layered and textural exploration of identity, kinship, and resilience. Through a nuanced interplay of color, text, and composition, Rieke interrogates the evolving constructs of womanhood, motherhood, and sisterhood—questioning the inherited narratives that shape these roles and the agency with which they are redefined. The piece serves as both a personal and collective inquiry: Do these bonds sustain and uplift us, or do we grasp onto them out of longing for something more? In its raw yet deliberate assemblage, Sisterhood becomes a vessel for reflection, challenging viewers to confront the tensions between tradition and transformation in the ongoing pursuit of solidarity and self-definition.
