Drop In, Switch Ongoes hollywoodAuction of unique, hand-crafted decorative art, including wall switch plates, mirrors and lamps To support the art and outreach projects of the Houston Women's Caucus for Art, a twenty-year-old, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to giving expression to the concerns of women through art. Current projects include Mother Earth Eco-Sculpture, a large-scale (90' long) grass-clad earthworks of a reclining matriarchal female form emerging from a meadow in Challenger Seven Park near Friendswood. One breast is missing from the sculpture to express a connection between the health of the environment and the health of women. A second work, The Banners Project, is a textile-based artwork featuring the names of women diagnosed with breast cancer. Names are submitted by the friends and families of women affected by breast cancer, then transferred onto shimmering fabric banners by artists. Colors, shapes, and textures define each symbol-rich banner.
