Stay Home Gallery & Residency - Autumn 2022: Deirdre was artist in resident at this historic home which is an art gallery & a residency space in rural Tennessee, near the town of Paris. An artist-run project, it was initiated in 2020 as an online curation project between Kaylan Buteyn and Pam Marlene Taylor to highlight women and non-binary artists creating art in the global quarantine. It seeks to make visible the work of artists, who identify as female and who are mothers
