Gschwandtner鈥檚 work was recently highlighted at the ZMA in the December 2019 exhibition 鈥淐loud Chamber鈥� curated by Ginger Wolfe-Surez, interim director of curatorial affairs. A group exhibition of textile works by four women from the United States and Canada, 鈥淐loud Chamber鈥� explored collaboration, handcraft, labor and technology through exquisite tactile works. The coloring sheet by Gschwandtner was inspired by her series of work in the exhibition. The artist brings new perspectives to forgotten early film history, when women were often hired as film editors because of their sewing skills. She 鈥渞ecasts undervalued histories of women鈥檚 handcraft work, and connects the sphere of craft and concept in art.鈥� Other artists in the exhibition included , , and . 

School of Art and Design professor and artist also embraced the idea of sharing his artwork as coloring pages to amuse and help pass the time during the pandemic quarantine. He proffered two pieces of art inspired by 鈥淪tronghold,鈥� his upcoming site-specific installation at the ZMA, created to be experienced by walking over and through. 鈥淪tronghold" was initially conceptualized in relation to the artist鈥檚 own memories of being bullied in childhood, a topic that is, unfortunately, pervasive in our culture. His work has often included autobiographical narratives while exploring ideas of experimental portraiture and alternative forms of history-sharing. Sherer鈥檚 work eloquently and urgently represents human experience primarily through the forms of drawing and painting. This work represents cultural growth, suffering, engagement, and hope.

Wolfe-Suarez said, 鈥淭his project came out of my own experience as a curator and mom working from home during the shelter-in-place order. I have been thinking about how our labor is visible and not visible in ways that already exist in our culture but have been amplified during this time. A lot of my work is done through virtual meetings while my children work on various art projects. I loved the idea of the ZMA bringing activities at no cost to families in the community. It is also a way of connecting my work to my children.鈥� 

Artists , , and have each contributed new coloring sheets as of May, 2020. Additional coloring sheets are anticipated from various artists, including from , an artist, writer, and curator in New York who will be co-curating an upcoming, permanent collection exhibition at ZMA.
