WEAVING AMBIGUITY
Slemmons Gallery
August 1, 2025 – September 12, 2025
Weaving Ambiguity is a solo exhibition by interdisciplinary artist Bethany Cordero that brings together sculptural works and drawings shaped by processes of casting, welding, and weaving. Using materials like bronze, clay, steel, and fiber, the work reflects an ongoing engagement with transformation, time, and material presence. Each piece is shaped through techniques that carry traces of change, tension, and repair. Rather than offering fixed meanings, the exhibition invites viewers to encounter shifting relationships—between form and material, strength and fragility, permanence and loss.
RSVP for the opening reception on Friday, August 1st from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the link below:

Bethany Cordero is an interdisciplinary artist and a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she studied sculpture and fiber and material studies. With a focus on clay, fiber, and metal, her work investigates how materials transform, decay, and adapt over time, reflecting the evolving nature of selfhood and experience. She creates sculptural forms that embody resilience and transformation, drawing on both philosophical inquiry and tactile experimentation. She has exhibited widely across Chicago, with features in Surface Design and Chicago Life Magazine. Recently, she completed a four month residency at Oak Park Art League, culminating in a solo show, alongside her participation in the Hyde Park Art Center’s Bridge Program. She currently teaches sculpture both in person and online, and is part of the Hyde Park Art Center’s 2025 CENTER Program, with upcoming group and solo exhibitions this year
