UC Davis alumna artist Danielle Fodor, of Davis, has finished her #plan4resilience project and is holding a farewell art show before she moves to Washington.
The last mural in the #plan4resilience was painted on May 4 in front of the Varsity Theater by artist Dianna Craig. "Mighty Moms'' was designed in honor of her mom and all the women whose essential work keeps our society — and families — running.
This pavement painting is the last in the #plan4resilience project by Fodor. #Plan4resilience was created during the pandemic and it commissioned economically impacted local artists to create three-day murals out of sidewalk chalk and temporary, washable, tempera and clay-based paints, around the theme “Plan for Resilience.” The project was funded by the City Davis Arts & Cultural Affairs program.
Fodor is hosting a pop-up art show and farewell reception to share her art ranging from when she first moved to Davis as an art student in the 1990s to pieces she created in the last month. The show will include a variety of styles and mediums, including original drawings from Davis murals, Pillbug comics, paper mâche masks, altered toys, political posters, pastels, pen-and-ink drawings, greeting cards, and acrylic paintings on plywood and canvas.
