Chelsea Clarke

"My work deals with the effects of mental and physical illness on my personality and relationships. Though I suspect this theme has always been present in some way, I consciously decided to develop it after beginning treatment for a chronic condition. This process has forced me to peel away at my personality in order to discover who I am going to be as I continue to move forward (or maybe sideways). A multidisciplinary approach allows me to fully express my ideas while also being mindful and compassionate towards my body, which continues to amaze me with its resilience."

Jonathan Forrence

"These works stand as a testament to the divide between rural and industrial practices. They represent the intersection of material that builds our cities and supports an urban population with a gentle and quiet craft of a rural achievement. One cannot exist without the other just as these compositions are not complete without each material."

Amalia Galdona Broche

"The cultural rift between created by growing up in Cuba has heightened my memory of a world of scarcity and the socialist education of my childhood, contrasted by the consumer-driven lifestyle and the expansive opportunities of my adulthood. This duality exists in tension and opposition, feeding my sculptural practice and materializing a psychological landscape of nostalgia, accumulation, and memories that fester."

Frank Geiser

"My work attempts to call its viewers into quiet contemplation through a focus on time and memory. I am interested in exploring how timelines can exist together in a non-linear fashion."

Sophia Louise Goodpasture

"Through a practice of precise and studied mark making I investigate the quilted form as a metaphor for maternal structures and lineage. Presenting the quilt as an object in use, rippling with transitory folds, I reject associations of the quilt as a neatly tucked object preferring to investigate the quilt as a sculptural artifact. In doing so, I situate the quilt in an amorphous zone, whereby what remains lies enveloped in what is absent."

Hannah Smith

"My work engages the perspective of my lived experience, a neurodivergent, gimme punk, within unevenly weighted relationship dynamics. An aesthetic or perspective of the oppressed, based on those relegated to the margins by all-too-narrow societal constructs. In this way, I am interested in understanding and contributing to the discourse on the powers that perpetuate the status quo."
