Iris Eichenberg: Where Words Fail introduces new audiences to this compelling artist's body of work, simultaneously inviting them to enjoy the beauty of the forms she creates while also engaging them through the important questions her work poses. Featuring nearly forty objects that span three decades of activity, this exhibition is the first comprehensive, mid-career survey of Eichenberg's oeuvre, which ranges from conceptual jewelry to thought-provoking installations. Exploring timely issues surrounding heritage, gender, identity, equity, and social justice, each work reflects the artist's quest for a safe haven in a more equitable world.
