Exhibitions:
CONTEMPORARY INNOVATIONS: Erin Fostel
Works in graphite and charcoal

Fostel’s drawings are focused on the bedroom as a uniqueplace where a sole woman occupant can be free of the objectification and expectation imposed upon her most anywhere else. The work acknowledges each woman through representation of her space, rather than her body.
