Women in the arts continue to be highly unrepresented in the art world, and it is important to change this status quo. Curated by Ashley Layendecker, Girl's Favorite features a group of female artists that communicate ideas of abstraction through pattern and repetition. A selection of artists from New York, Alabama, Texas, and Tennessee will be showcased.

The title Girl's Favorite comes from a name of a quilt pattern square. Quilts have a long history with being crafted by women to comfort and are comprised of pieces of stitched fabric to create a pattern or design. In this same vein, the women included in this show use pattern and repetition in their artwork, piecing together a community of artists that are communicating similar ideas.
