The cover art this month is Athens by Deidre Riordan
Deidre Riordan works across collage, assemblage, oil painting, and sculpture to explore the intersections of religious trauma, feminism, and social commentary. Drawing from found images, objects, and vintage ephemera, her work confronts forbidden topics and responds to current events with unflinching honesty. Grounded in color theory, Riordan’s practice creates a deliberate openness — each piece functions as both personal testimony and public mirror, allowing viewers to encounter their own interpretations alongside the artist’s intended meaning. This flexibility transforms the work into a conversation rather than a declaration, inviting audiences to bring their own experiences to subjects often deemed too uncomfortable for polite discourse.
