Artist Statement:
The idea for my new series came years ago after finding a book at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, in Washington DC. It was titled: Girls Think of Everything. It was a book geared towards younger middle school age students with a dozen or so examples of women inventors. Starting a journal in October 2015, I wrote: “This series is meant to inspire young girls and young women to be curious on how things work, to solve problems, to stand up for themselves, to not give up and to stay in school. With that in mind, through many hours of research and creative contemplation, I honor 26 women. My goal is to have the viewer see the 'ART of invention.'“
This full-color 72-page exhibition catalog features all thirty-six works in the exhibit and includes an introductory essay by Dr. Gerald Mead as well as Coni’s artist’s statement, her brief biography and inventor index by Mark Strong.
