Hollie Chastain (Chattanooga, TN) turns Austen’s famous list of accomplishments into a visually rich meditation on the expectations placed on women. In Expectations, layered collage, gouache, and embroidery floss build a figure surrounded by the skills, graces, and social codes she is expected to embody. Delicate threads and paper fragments give the work a tactile, almost fragile quality, underscoring how much is demanded beneath the surface of feminine “accomplishment.” Hollie’s playful yet pointed composition asks: How much is ever enough?
