LaToya M. Hobbs honors her family, friends, and community by sharing their stories in her work. Born in Arkansas, the artist specializes in painting and printmaking. In “Carving Out Time,” a series of five life-size woodcuts, Hobbs depicts an average day with her husband, Ariston Jacks, and their two children. The scenes are “a powerful statement about the capacity of prints to be deeply personal and universal at once,” says the curator Elizabeth M. Rudy. Showing moments of work and play, of dinnertime and nighttime, Hobbs reveals the daily negotiations that she makes to balance her roles as mother, wife, educator, and artist. A co-founder of Black Women in Print, an organization that promotes the visibility of Black women printmakers, Hobbs also teaches at the Maryland Institute College of Art. —Jeanne Malle
