We are delighted you are here. The art of Richmond artist Elizabeth Coffey was on display at Health Brigade from September-November 2024.

This is our 23rd exhibition. Art Brigade artists graciously donate 25% of the cost of any pieces sold to support Health Brigade’s mission.

“I’m fascinated by the tension between the seen and the unseen, and its relevance to female identity. I often paint on lace fabric, a symbol of traditional domestic roles and accepted forms of creative expression for women that also serves as a veil to true identity. I learned sewing and needlework at an early age, and enjoy incorporating these traditional art forms, pushing them beyond their intended use. A lifelong love of language has also seeped into my current work.” -Elizabeth Coffey
