Join us for the opening of Experimentation with the Void. This is a collaborative showcase featuring 11 advanced students from the University of New Mexico’s studio art program. These artists explore different perspectives, qualities, and arrangements of contemporary artwork, with a wide range of intentions: dismantling gender and celebrating queer culture, exploring the internal emotion life during COVID19, examining photographic vs personal memory and the relationship of identity to objects, re-rendering nature tactilely and reconsidering markers of progress through the lens of post-colonialism, creating contemplative spaces through still life, and expanding photography to portray the self. Each artist is presenting excerpts from a single semester-long exploration that is a culmination of their pursuits through the BA/BFA programs. The exhibit will open on May 7th, and run through May 29th. Join us for the opening reception on May 7th, 5-8 PM, at the Exhibit 208 Gallery 208 Broadway Blvd SE.

Artists: Julia Andreas, Bridey Caramgna, Mathew Duda, Wanashe Frank, Bob Macdonald, Briana Moreno, Vince Navarette, Jacob Nunez, Consuelo Ortiz, Claire Plymale, Elizabeth Wilkinson.
