  • With Honey, With Time

    Gemma Guiomard
    Gough Gallery

    Working across sculpture, drawing, and poetry, Guiomard’s work explores themes of liminality, memory, and transformation. As a queer, first-generation American and a person shaped by lived experiences of trauma, the artist engages fluidity as both subject and method. Their sculptural works—constructed from organic matter, reclaimed materials, and fiber—are intentionally impermanent, often shifting, aging, or even decaying over time.

    Reused materials such as ritual wax, brewed tea bags, and personal detritus serve as markers of intimacy and lived history, while also asserting a political stance against disposability and capitalist excess. These objects carry social associations that deepen each work’s narrative presence. Drawings emerge through conventional mark-making as well as handwriting and sewn lines, expanding the definition of drawing into acts of language and stitch. Together, these interdisciplinary forms create a practice grounded in transformation, memory, and the quiet endurance of everyday materials.

    Guiomard’s work was recently exhibited with Howard County Artist Council in Ellicott City, MD, The Artworks in North Carolina, and No. 7 Gallery in North Dakota. Her artwork is published in Superpresent, Gulf Stream Literary Magazine, and Peatsmoke Journal. Gemma was raised in DFW, became a member of the Cedars Union, and exhibited in group shows with Ro2 Art, 500x, the Cedars Union as well as ArtCon. 

    On display December 13, 2025 - February 28, 2026. Opening reception January 8, 2026 6 - 8pm.
