Heirloom: Online Exhibition Catalogue

Ruiz-Healy Art presents Heirloom, a group exhibition of works curated by Sarah Beauchamp and Yadira Silva. Drawing from the Ruiz-Healy Art archive, the exhibition explores how cultural artifacts, moments, and gestures are embedded in visual language. Heirloom explores everyday objects, inherited materials, symbolic forms, and language to carry, reconstruct, and honor memory.  Artists turn to material such as family photos, ritual items, and heirlooms for preservation and re-contextualization. Objects, sometimes humble, other times ornate, act as traces of lived experiences.
