'What Remains...' by Julie Levesque
The Historic Hampton House
Museum of Art & Culture
December 2025 - September 2026
ARTIST STATEMENT
A classroom is a highly charged atmosphere where enormous amounts of energy and emotion are expended in a contained space. Angst, joy, confusion, distraction, victory and defeat are made visible in some of the school desks and chairs of the children who used them.
This 2nd grade classroom represents a universal moment in childhood when you realize you must stand up for yourself.
What Remains… becomes more relevant with each passing year. By rekindling recollections of our own early school experiences, it opens a vital dialog about our education system. It evokes empathy for the pressures today’s students face while encouraging young visitors who encounter the artwork to express their own thoughts and stories.

INQUIRE ABOUT EXHIBITING ‘WHAT REMAINS…’
We are actively seeking exibition space for this art installation. We feel that it has a strong impact and speaks to the controversies swirling around elementary education at this time. It is our belief that presenting this work in a public venue (museum, foundation, art fair, college or school gallery or visible vacant commercial space) will open a dialogue that will benefit all.
