Breaking Through: The Glass Ceiling Project
Join us at Axis Gallery for Second Saturday, a monthly celebration of the newest gallery exhibition. Guests can enjoy light refreshments, lively conversation, and meet the month’s featured artists.
Marginalia – Muzi Li Rowe
Axis Gallery is pleased to present Hollow Veil, an exhibition of landscape paintings by Mirabel Wigon. These paintings question experience, immersion, and separation in an encapsulated world.
無知爲用 (Good of Nothing) – Muzi Li Rowe
Rowe is creating a series of Chinese knots, an ancient form of folk art that is typically made with fabric cords and is displayed as festive decoration. Using defunct cables such as ethernet cables, phone charging cables and wired headphones, she is transforming these discarded materials into hand knotted forms with the technique of a traditional Chinese craft.
Morbidly Optimistic – Muzi Li Rowe
Muzi Li Rowe’s debut solo show at Axis Gallery looks at the intersection of technology, personal history, pseudo science and consumerism.

This show is about strategies for coping with dueling apocalypses. Laughter, tenderness, finding the ground so you can put your feet on it. We are looking for ways forward, for political agency. We are imagining new ways of being, collectively and individually. How do we find each other again? How do we listen, how do we love? How do we serve each other? How do we reconnect to our places, our environment, our neighbors and ourselves? We invite you to be with us. It’s wonderful being with you.
Five new Axis members—Eliza Gregory, Muzi Li Rowe, Vincent Pacheco, Joanne Tepper Saffren and Dan Tran—come together to show their work as Strategies for Coping, an exhibition dedicated to building connection across isolation in this particular time and place. Each artist presents work that speaks to a particular strategy for dealing with the panoply of ills that have reared up these last few months: anxiety, isolation, personal trauma, grief, social upheaval, sickness, wildfire…the list goes on. Using a mixture of photography, sculpture and paintings the five artists present works that resonate with humor and pathos, opening a conversation for everyone to acknowledge and share their strategies for coping.
