The sculpture is createdin collaboration with The USF School of Art & Art History, undergraduate interns, and the youth of Community Stepping Stones in Sulphur Springs.
Figures in Quarantine
February 1 - 11
Figures in Quarantine stands as a model for the sources and inspirations that students
have
used to represent the human figure during forced social isolation. Through a range
of two and
three-dimensional media, small and large-scale artworks, and executed by MFA and BFA
students at USF, this exhibition embodies the livelihood, emotions, and experiences
artists have
while working and living amidst a pandemic era.
Ritual/Natural/Virtual 3
January 11 - 21
Ritual/Natural/Virtual 3: Through repetitive mark-making, meditative construction, vivid, sensual imagery, and repurposed high tech equipment, Luke Myers, Molly Duff and Willow Wells continue to examine the intersection of the ancient and the ultramodern.
Absentee Authority
January 11 - 21
Absentee Authority references the point where "deconstructive analyses and identity politics" converge.
The work of Laura Perez Insua, JD Hardy, Lisa McCarthy, Tatiana Mesa Pajan, and Carola
Miles illuminates this paradox. Using line, color, light and metal to navigate the
place where trauma can be present with an absent subject. Or where the subject returns
to the scene of a vacant trauma.
