THE FABRIC OF WOMEN'S SPACE-TIME THE LACE MILL WEST GALLERY, KINGSTON, NY MAY 13, 2017 Photo: Valerie Sharp Photo: Valerie Sharp Space and time are aspects of a single measurable reality called space-time. Matter and energy are two expressions of a single material. In Healing The Fabric of Woman's Space-Time a quilt becomes a framework for entering space-time and offers a way to mend reality. Nina A. Isabelle will sleep on a quilt in The Lace Mill's East Gallery from 5:30-8:30 PM on Saturday May 13th. Public participants are invited to embed their maternal grandmother's lineage into space-time by hand stitching initials or names into a galaxy dress in a process that punctuates phenomena by aligning intention with action. The quilt was hand made by Zula Hazel in Centre County Pennsylvania and was a gift to me from my Mother for my high-school graduation in 1991. It's been a part of multiple relationships, husbands, and births and has traveled extensively throughout the nation being tossed across deserts in Southern Utah and Nevada, sprawled along roadsides from California to Illinois, and matted down among hay fields and along river beds all throughout the Northeast.

Nina A. Isabelle is a multidisciplinary artist working with abstract painting, performance art, video, photography, sound, and sculpture. HOME ABOUT PROJECTS More... PAINTINGS 2017 1-2017 - 43.50 x 62.25 Acrylic on Canvas 43.50 x 62.25 2017 2-2017 43.50 x 62.25 Acrylic on Canvas 43.50 x 62.25 2017 3-2017 - 43.50 x 62.25 Acrylic on Canvas 43.50 x 62.25 2017 Paintings in the studio Paintings in the studio In 2017, I made these large abstract paintings using a four-inch brush to drag six colors sequentially across each surface. With each new color came the erasure of what came before, each mark both creating and subtracting, layering presence over absence. Seven years later, I revisit these works through the lens of my history as a climber, seeing how physical instinct and embodied decision-making shape both artmaking and movement. In making these paintings, I explored the boldness required to act, to trust the body’s sense of direction apart from rational logic. The process feels akin to bouldering: reading a route, sensing where the holds might be, and moving through uncertainty with focus and commitment. Sometimes instinct leads to success; other times it fails completely. Yet in both art and climbing, these moments of failure become gifts that reveal what we know, what we don’t, and how understanding and discovery emerge through the body. Like artmaking, climbing demands presence, intuition, and courage. Both acts arise from a need for momentum and discovery, from testing the limits of embodied perception. Through these works, I consider how the body: its history, effort, and instinct, can guide creative process and generate knowledge beyond the rational or cerebral. This approach also resists the elitism and performative intellectualism that too often alienate people from art. The creative, experimental, and playful processes of both artmaking and climbing are accessible to all humans, regardless of social, educational, and economic backgrounds, offering a way of being that reconnects us with our shared humanity. I began climbing in 1990. My main stomping grounds were the boulders and trad routes of Little Cottonwood Canyon in Salt Lake City. I also climbed extensively in Indian Creek, City of Rocks, Yosemite, and Zion, focusing on trad routes, bouldering, freeing aid routes, as well as scouting, exploring, and developing hidden spots around Gunnison and the Southwest as a proto–dirtbag van-life kid.

UNITY THE LACE MILL KINGSTON, NY MAY 6, 2017 The UNITY show is a partnership of artists from along the Cornell Street corridor — the Shirt Factory, Pajama Factory, Brush Factory, Cornell Street Studios and The Lace Mill — whose works will be exhibited at The Lace Mill’s East Gallery and West Gallery, 165 Cornell Street, Kingston. The show’s opening reception will be held Saturday, May 6 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Disciplines include painting, sculpture, ceramics, performance, installation, music, and dance, video, puppetry for kids, and sonic meditation. Artwork, like Election Night March 2017 by Leslie Bender, at right will be featured. A closing reception the following on Saturday, May 13 from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m., features live performance-based art such as dance, video and music. Inspired by the newly launched Midtown Arts District (MAD) last year, Lace Mill community arts liaison Sarah Carlson and Shirt Factory events coordinator Lisa Kelley started discussing the possibilities of joining forces to create a dynamic group show of the buildings’ artists while also supporting the mission and initiatives of MAD. Carlson explains, “I wanted to do a show that was about what we have in common, rather than what divides us, and to have that conversation as a community. It seemed sweet to open that dialogue to the arts corridor right here and a nice way for us to dialogue about what’s happening on the local national stage. As artists, that’s what we do.” Kelley adds, “I love Sarah’s idea for bringing our artists together with the theme of unity. Over the last year, the Midtown Arts District and Mike Piazza’s artist factory buildings have supported this kind of collaboration between artists. I believe we’re planting some fertile seeds for exciting partnerships in the future.” Over two dozen artists will participate in UNITY.

THE WINDMILL WEAPON MATRON MAY 2016 The Windmill Weapon Matron was built on May 12, 2016 and exhibited on June 3, 2016 as part of The New School's Social Justice exhibition with The Bushwick Collective. Materials include s awhorse, l umber, co nstruction m aterials, s pray p aint, h ouse p aint, a fghans, w eapons, b icycle p arts, y arn, p laster, t erra c otta, c hain. She is 90h x 53w x 45d. She is a dangerous female machine expressing an active stance and aggressive posture. She no longer identifies as passive and has most recently emerged as an international threat. Based on a jumbled compilation of afghans, defunct bicycle parts, weapons, lumber, and chain her biographical narrative has been holographically reconfigured into a destructive biological machine made of woman’s time. While The Windmill Weapon Matron acknowledges her destructive approach as a natural response to her capacity for childbirth, she hesitates to dichotomize the two simply saying “Come, let me destroy you.” Utilizing a process of defiance The Windmill Weapon Matron has successfully developed a system capable of transforming eye-rolling, financial aid application trauma, stuffed animal over population, and hair pulling as well as other sensory input bull shit into a clean, renewable, and sustainable energy source for mothers. Nobody will lend her a chainsaw It is safe to breed with her She makes a mockery of science Her system is nervous Her face is spinning When she was a virgin politicians killed and ate her She is secular Her system has calcified She loves The Antichrist She birthed a female bastard She wan’t trained up the way she should go The system tries to destroy her She has nothing to depart from Rabbits fear her She has been relieved of advantage Her system is unkillable
