Who We Are
The Curator:
Christina Landry-Boullion, an international artist and art educator, is the curator of the Glimpse Gallery. She works closely with Meme Exum. Christina has strong ties to the global art community and has served as curator of art exhibits in Africa and Southeast Asia.
Christina began teaching in Bow, NH, in 2022. By the summer of 2023 she had assembled a collection of work by local students for display with some of her own work at the Baker Free Library in Bow.
While abroad, Christina immersed herself in the local art and culture scenes, connecting with artists and practicing modern and native techniques. These collaborative efforts led to display opportunities at the Panaga Club Library in Brunei. In 2019, Christina served as the lead curator of the Arbor Day Art Auction, a multinational collaboration of artists that funded the planting of 100,000 trees in Brunei.
While living in western Africa, Christina was the master of ceremonies, curator and co-organizer of a National Women’s Day function in Yenzi, Gabon. For that event, female artisans created high fashion clothing, accessories and fine arts. Christina also held multiple Evening of the Arts events at the Yenzi Community Building to showcase the talents of adult and student artists.
The Owner:
Miriam (Meme) Exum works closely with her friend and curator, Christina Landry-Boullion.
Meme grew up in a family that always appreciated art. As a young adult, while geographically separated from her family, Meme’s psyche found refuge in paintings by her mother, her sister and her brother. She was motivated to showcase their work along with other artists she admired on an online platform that was open and inclusive. The concept behind Glimpse has always been to uplift artists and provide exposure without expensive gallery fees or constricting contracts.
Meme spent her youth in Atlanta, GA. After attending boarding school in the Northeast and college in Virginia, she returned to Atlanta. Her professional career started at Harrison Design , where she worked in marketing for seven years. She met her husband, William, a residential architect, on that job. After many years of city life, Meme and William bought a farm in the southern Appalachian Mountains and spent six joyful years there. They now live in Bow with their two daughters and a houseful of animals. Meme also runs a Website Design Business in Concord.
