A pile of shipping containers arranged to look like a cubist rendition of a sleeping figure lays in the middle of a desert landscape with a large snowcapped mountain behind it. She sleeping figure is laying on its side, propping its sleeping head up with its elbow and crossing its legs. The container that is meant to be the figure's head has two closed eyes and a smile painted on its surface. Behind the sculpture is a railroad track where actual shipping containers move across the landscape via train.

Nuns and Social Justice Come Together in This Art Installation

Artist Lexa Walsh's "Sisters InfoShop" is an exhibition and socially engaged project at Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana co-designed with the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange. Incorporating conversational sculptures reconfigured from vintage school desks and prayer kneelers and a kiosk reminiscent of punk infoshops, the project aims to spark connection while highlighting the sisters' legacy of activism through a feminist lens. Learn more about the project and meet Sister Ellen, a miming nun who activates the space every month at the Santa Ana Artwalk.

"Sisters InfoShop" will be on display at the Grand Central Art Center until May 14, 2023. Programming from the Sisters activate the installation on the first Saturday every month during the Downtown Santa Ana Artwalk.
