Pat Stephens: Earthy Stories

Opening Reception: Friday, May 2, 2025, 5-8pm

I am interested in how information is realized, interpreted, and shared. My work is inspired by my surroundings and observations of transitory states in the environment. Viewers should think they are looking at a familiar object when in fact they are not; I love the reversal of expectations.

Artists Residents of Chicago (A.R.C.) was founded in 1973 as a women-run artists’ cooperative at a time when the art world largely dismissed women’s voices. In 2025, We continue to champion innovative, emerging, and experimental visual art, reaching a broad audience—including our wonderful West Town community. As a non-commercial gallery, we foster an environment of artistic experimentation and dialogue.
