We are all connected in one way or another. To the world at large and to our chosen communities.
In Kathleen Zimmerman’s latest drawing, Bob’s Kat (shown above) and a recent video about her residency in China (shown below), allude to her connection to the world at large. China Through An Artist’s Eyes in book form can be previewed at the following link.

Zimmerman’s memberships in National Association of Women Artists Organization, Zea Mays Printmaking Studio, and her repeated appearance in Sanctuary Magazine, demonstrate her connection to these chosen communities.
The National Association of Women Artists Organization is based in New York City but also has a Massachusetts Chapter. Zimmerman is a Signature Member and has shown in many shows with NAWA but just last year become a member of the Massachusetts Chapter as well. The images below are from the opening of their latest group exhibition titled Ambition. The opening was held at the Wedeman Gallery in Newton, Massachusetts, which is located just west of Boston. The full exhibition dates, and address, are listed below.

The designs below are for hand-made serigraphs that Zimmerman will be creating at Zea Mays Printmaking as well as Zimmerman Fine Art Studio beginning in December.
These designs are related to a series of reliefs. Both have to do with the interconnectiveness of all things. Below is a quick photo of the plaster models of Nature Contained. To see bronze version go to “sculpture” on this website’s menu.
Zimmerman is thrilled with the connection she has made to Sanctuary Magazine. This online magazine interviewed Zimmerman in the magazine in the fall of 2022. (link below)
