Installation pics from “Draw: Point to Point” at the Frost Art Museum at FIU, including pen & ink sketches of my firstborn, Paula (1962).
Curators Thomas Vu, Brian Novatny, and Yady Rivero were particularly interested in how artists moved between private and public spheres through their sketchbooks. Draw is a decade long, research intensive, international exploration of drawing with different artists selected for each exhibition.
Five of Redman's baby Paula drawings are part of the permanent collection of the Frost Art Museum, Florida International University, Miami. Her personal exploration of maternal identity and experience was rare for that era. Few women art professionals depicted/exhibited their own pregnancy, birth, or babies during the 1960s /70s.

Survival and Rebirth. As an art academy student, Helen Redman (1940) was in vain looking for a female example, 'someone who paints from her own body and experience'. In the end she became that artist herself: pregnancy, motherhood, menopause and old age are central to her feminist oeuvre.
