Join us for the opening reception and book release party for The Mother Game, a collaborative art exhibition and artist book by Luca Molnar and Kat Shannon that explores contemporary motherhood through painting, photography, and experimental writing.
Luca Molnar is a painter, educator, and writer based in Central Florida whose work layers historical photographs with decorative patterns, creating collage-like compositions that reflect the fragmented and nonlinear nature of history and memory. Her recent projects include Worker Bees, a thirty-eight-foot mural at the Mennello Museum of American Art highlighting Floridian farmworkers and their advocates, as well as collaborative projects connecting artists and students.
Kat Shannon is an artist and educator working across photography, text, and video. Her work explores intimacy, connection, and collective memory, examining the complex role photography plays in shaping how we understand our lives and histories. She holds degrees from Savannah College of Art and Design and Bard College and is currently based between São Paulo, Brazil and Orlando, Florida.
Longtime friends and admirers of each other’s work, Molnar and Shannon collaborated throughout 2025 to create The Mother Game. Inspired by childhood game structures and literary experiments like Choose Your Own Adventure stories, the project combines photography, painting, drawing, and experimental writing to examine motherhood from personal, collective, and political perspectives.
The book was created while Shannon was expecting and later welcoming her second daughter, while Molnar immersed herself in contemporary motherhood culture during a sabbatical from Stetson University. The result is a playful yet thoughtful exploration of maternity, identity, and the systems that shape how motherhood is understood.
The Mother Game is part of Burrow Press’s Affordable Collaborative Artist Book Series (2026).
The exhibition will feature artworks created for the book alongside additional new works and site-specific installations. Visitors will also have opportunities to attend open studio hours to see the exhibition take shape and participate in family-friendly programming during the run of the show.
We hope you’ll join us to celebrate this exciting collaborative project and meet the artists.
