School of the Art Institute Chicago
I will be attending the School of the Art Institute Chicago for an MFA in sculpture starting this fall. I am very excited about a new environment, although it was difficult to make the decision to leave NC.
Countertransference is an exhibition at UNCW opening on May 28th and running until August 6th. The reception will be from 5-7 on May 28th, and during the summer it will be open m-th 12-4. This is my first larger curatorial adventure, and it includes many friends from NC.
Update on Shore Drive
The design firm hired to redesign the Town Commons in Greenville has released their first stage in the design process. On the Southwest corner of the park, they are planning to have a memorial to the history of the location (keyword for our project). Later this year, the final masterplan will be decided.
Sparkcon and Countertransference
In September 2009 I participated in Sparkcon 2009 as a site-specific installation artist in downtown Raleigh. With less than a month to work within the location and finish a project, it was a difficult task. My installation, as well as 4 others were placed on Fayetteville Street just in front of the State Capitol building in PODS containers.
Also, if you are within the southeast NC region next summer, be sure to drop by UNCW for "Countertransference: Approaches in Social Art Practice." It is an exhibition I will be curating with approximately 10 artists working with regional issues in installation and conceptual derived formats. It includes a mixed bag of artists, from those just beginning graduate school to some well known faculty members who have won national arts awards.
Town Commons Project
Currently I am working with Sycamore Hill Church Members on a project to get the bell tower of their old church rebuilt as a historical monument. If you are interested in being a part of this project please send me an email.
