FEATURED ARTISTS
Jessica Rosen
Member-at-large
Jessica Rosen is both a visual artist and curator whose practice is rooted in feminist and queer theory. Her artwork aims to denaturalize conventional ideas about femininity and domesticity. She currently serves as the Assistant Curator at The Heckscher Museum of Art in Huntington, New York, where she curated the exhibitions Embracing the Parallax: Berenice Abbott and Elizabeth McCausland (2025) and Lines of Influence: Artists Teaching Artists (2026). After completing her Bachelor’s degree in Studio Art at Colgate University, Jessica went on to receive her Master’s degree from Maastricht University in the Netherlands.

Transfer printing and collage create fractured visual histories that move the images away from the purely representational, while hand embroidery introduces a reference to what is traditionally women's work. By combining fragile materials with repeated acts of layering and stitching, I investigate how cultural ideas surrounding femininity, spirituality, and the body persist across time.

Glenda Musilek
Member-at-large
Glenda Larson Musilek is a nationally recognized abstract and representational painter whose work explores the quiet threshold between emotion, memory, and the unseen forces that shape human experience. Musilek blends intuitive gesture, atmospheric color fields, and layered mark-making to create paintings that feel simultaneously expansive and intimate. Her deep background in fine art, commercial design, and ongoing art research informs a practice rooted in curiosity, spiritual resonance, and the pursuit of visual poetry.
Frances Trainor
Member-at-large
I grew up surrounded by nature—at first by the sea and very old, very tall trees. I have a deep love of wolves and respect for how they re-establish and maintain the health of critical eco systems. It’s women and wolves, trees and the sea, and digging into my own roots to offer something respectfully with integrity. I studied fine art and dance in the USA and abroad. My formal studies were at PSU, Limerick School of Art and Design, and at Christian-Albrecht Universität in Germany.

kept & carried: ordinary objects, extraordinary histories
This September, I am honored to present kept & carried, my solo exhibition as a 2026 Athena Fund Solo Show Award recipient at ARC Gallery in Chicago. The exhibition brings together printmaking, textiles, photography, artist books, sound, and participatory installation to explore how care is inherited, performed, and remembered through the ordinary objects and rituals of domestic life.

ART-RAGE: A CREATIVE REBELLION
Women's Caucus for Art (WCA) | Art Activism Pod Online Exhibition
Opens October 2, 2026
90 artists. 90 voices. One creative rebellion.
Inspired by the national Fall of Freedom project, Art-Rage brings together artists responding to our current cultural conditions through art that is unapologetic, raw, beautifully dangerous, truthful, funny, angry, mysterious, insightful—and sometimes impossible to categorize. The simple act of making art is, and always has been, a vital form of creative rebellion.
Online Artists’ Reception: October 3, 4–5:30 p.m. ET
WCA Kunstmatrix Gallery at NationalWCA.org
