The Carver Museum, a cornerstone of cultural heritage in East Austin, is kicking off the New Year with a provocative new exhibition by Aimée M. Everett titled "Two Births and the Afterlife." The show, which digs into the transformative experience of childbirth and the ensuing voyage into motherhood, will open its doors to the public on January 11, accompanied by an opening reception at 6 p.m. Located at 1165 Angelina St., the reception will feature light bites, drinks, and a stirring musical act featuring Jon Deas, James Adkins, and Dayne Reliford, according to the City of Austin.
The exhibit promises to grip viewers from January 11 through April 20, 2024, offering a chance to witness Everett's exploration of memory, identity, and the human condition in her inimitable style.
Everett, a talent hailing from New Orleans and now calling Milwaukee home, has made a name for herself with her atmospheric creations that eschew the confines of language, instead favoring abstraction, stark minimalism, and bursts of saturated color. The artist's resume is as impressive as her work, with her pieces hanging in renowned galleries and museum walls in the States and across the pond in France and the United Kingdom, as stated in the City of Austin.
