Infinite Fire: The Power of Women’s Expression
Infinite Fire: The Power of Women's Expression is an exhibition of photographs by artist Anne Calamuci, featuring works from her acclaimed series Hear Me Roar and Ageless Creativity. Timed to coincide with Women’s History Month, the exhibition reflects the University’s longstanding commitment to women’s education and leadership.
Anne Calamuci is a Maryland-based fine art and portrait photographer whose work centers on women, identity, and the evolving female experience. She studied photography at Montgomery College, The Corcoran School of Art, and The Portfolio Center (now The Miami Ad School) in Atlanta, developing a practice that blends careful planning with intuitive image-making. Her portraits explore emotion, aging, memory, and beauty, often guided by themes, which allows space for viewers to bring their own experiences into the interpretation.
Ageless Creativity is a photographic celebration of female artists ages 56 to 85, created to challenge cultural assumptions about aging and women’s creative vitality. After her 60th birthday, Calamuci became increasingly aware of casual, negative portrayals of older women in popular media. In response, she turned her lens toward women who are not only living full lives, but actively creating, questioning, and imagining.
Hear Me Roar is a series celebrating the strength of women through portraiture paired with inspiring quotes from women. The works serve as visual affirmations, reminders of resilience, power, and shared wisdom. “Sometimes we need visual reminders of inspirational statements to reconnect with our strength as women,” Calamuci says. The series was created in collaboration with women she deeply admires, underscoring the collaborative nature of the project.

Rich in What They Can’t Measure
Curated by Jasmine Gabrielle Washington, Rich in What They Can’t Measure examines value beyond systems that rely on visibility, productivity, and quantification. The exhibition brings together artists whose practices center care, labor, intimacy, interiority, and inherited knowledge—forms of wealth that resist easy measurement yet sustain life, culture, and community.
Historically, Black life has been assessed through extractive frameworks that flatten complexity and render care invisible. This exhibition pushes against those logics, asking what becomes possible when worth is understood through presence rather than proof, relationship rather than output, and endurance rather than efficiency.
Across photography, video, installation, and material gesture, the works gathered here attend to the body as archive and infrastructure. They honor acts of holding, carrying, tending, remembering, and refusing—gestures often dismissed as informal or immeasurable, yet foundational to survival and self-determination.
Rich in What They Can’t Measure invites viewers to slow down and reconsider how value is assigned, who is allowed fullness, and what forms of abundance exist beyond institutional recognition. The exhibition asserts that what sustains us most—care, memory, intimacy, and interior life—has never required permission to exist.
The artists featured in Rich in What They Can’t Measure work across painting, photography, sculpture, and mixed media to examine interior life, memory, lineage, and the labor of becoming. Each practice resists easy legibility, attending instead to forms of knowledge that are felt, inherited, embodied, and lived.
Together, these artists attend to the body and assert voice as archive and infrastructure, insisting that what sustains us most cannot be measured, extracted, or reduced.
