Hear artist Eileen Hernandez’s story and the motivation behind her work in this virtual artist talk, held over Zoom.
Mixed media artist Eileen Hernandez is also an OB/GYN, helping patients on their journey to motherhood. As the Covid-19 pandemic began to change the pregnancy and birth experience for her patients, Hernandez channeled this painful moment into her art as a way to cope. Three of Hernandez’s paintings, on themes of the pandemic, family separation, and feminine power are featured in the Maitland Art Center’s Spring 2021 exhibition, “Love & Compassion: Images of Mother and Child.”
