Lisa Perry's Onna House, a restored midcentury residence she transformed into a space that celebrates female creators, has a new show up for August. 

"Supernatural Beauty" has brought together work by Lisa Eisner, Saskia Friedrich, Tamiko Kawata, Lisbeth McCoy, Adriana Meunie, and Setsuko Morita. Working in diverse materials, the artists each explore their intrinsic qualities in pieces that invite audiences to respond with their own "thematic associations." 

Whether in sculpture, fiber, jewelry, or other materials, each artist imbues their pieces with meaning or context. The natural world, psychology, dialogue across cultures, American society's bounty and wastefulness, the existential, and more can be found in these works.

This will be the final installation at Onna House in East Hampton this year. 

"I love the idea of bringing together six women artists from multiple disciplines and backgrounds to find in essence they all speak a similar language, with the common goal of seeking beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary," Ms. Perry said of the show.
