SUMMARY:Moving Through Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Moving Through \n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Madalyn Loucks Sorrell\n\n\n\nFeaturing a Short Film by Cade Hogan and Loucks Sorrell\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 21 – 25\, 2025\n\n\n\n Reception: Friday\, January 24th | 6-8p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Moving Through \n\n\n\nMoving Through is a collection of work that explores moments of bodily\, social and economic displacement. Sorrell aims to investigate these themes in every possible facet by “moving through” multiple mediums such as painting\, metal sculpture and film.  \n\n\n\nMadalyn Loucks Sorrell and Cade Hogan\, Moving Through\, 2024\, 4 and ½ minutes  \n\n\n\nMoving Through is a collaborative documentary by Madalyn Loucks Sorrell and Cade Hogan. The film centers around exploring moments of bodily\, social and economic displacement. In the interviews\, three women describe moments in their lives where their bodies became barriers to their autonomy and how they’ve navigated these experiences. Their testimonials\, filmed within the quiet intimacy of their homes\, highlight how multifaceted people can be\, and how what’s on the surface isn’t always as it appears. \n\n\n\nMore About Madalyn Loucks Sorrell \n\n\n\nIn my practice\, I have been investigating bodily memory to reckon with personal identity and chronic illness. My work serves as an attempt to explore and challenge the displacement I feel in my own body. This displacement stems from experiences throughout my life where the body became a barrier between me and the ability to make decisions for myself. My work aims to reclaim autonomy through representations of these experiences. When I work with metal\, the material demands a type of labor that feels ritualistic. It is a transaction between my body and the material. The heating and smashing of metal are metamorphic\, not unlike how the body transforms during trauma. Metal\, when under heat and pressure\, becomes new. A new vessel for memory. Here\, the broken thing becomes a testament to the resilience of the body rather than something invaluable. Changed and reassembled by my hands\, this labor makes me the catalyst for these observable metamorphoses. \n\n\n\nFollow Loucks on IG: @mlsorrellart \n\n\n\nMore About Cade Hogan \n\n\n\nCade Hogan is a US writer/director/actor who is currently based in Raleigh North Carolina. He attended the University of North Carolina School of the Arts Summer Film Program where he was able to start making movies on a bigger scale. From there\, Cade began his journey on creating his independent short films and his first feature A Likely Story. His filmography includes the audience renowned parody film Thursday the 12th and was followed by many shorts focused on comedy including: The Average Inspection of the General Parade Float\, Wrong Address\, Immortality\, and Meeting Mary. These films can all be found on his Youtube Channel linked below.  \n\n\n\nFor inquiries contact at: cademack28@gmail.com  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday – Friday\, 12 -5 PM \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5PM

SUMMARY:The UNinformed states of america art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Uninformed States of America\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Matthew Troyer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 28 – February 1\, 2025\n\n\n\n Reception: Friday\, January 31st | 6-8p\n\n\n\nMore About The Uninformed States of America   \n\n\n\nThe Uniformed States of America explores the commodification of military surplus garments\, examining how items once used in warfare have become symbols within American consumer culture. These garments\, designed initially for survival on the battlefield\, now carry new meanings as they are bought\, sold\, and worn in everyday life. They reflect a complex narrative of national identity\, nostalgia\, and militarization that continues to shape American society. \n\n\n\nThrough documenting military surplus stores\, I capture more than just the physical items\, I explore how these spaces reflect cultural tensions. For some\, these garments represent patriotism\, solidarity\, or a connection to an idealized past. For others\, they raise questions about the militarization of civilian life and the systems of power they symbolize. The presence of military and police memorabilia in these stores can evoke a sense of pride for some. In contrast\, for others\, it stirs discomfort and raises critical questions about authority and power.​ \n\n\n\nThe Uniformed States of America invites viewers to question the more profound cultural and ideological implications of wearing and consuming military surplus. These items\, now symbols of both reverence and critique\, challenge us to reflect on the evolving relationship between consumerism\, militarization\, and American identity. \n\n\n\nMore About Matthew Troyer  \n\n\n\nMatthew Troyer (b. 1988) is an American artist\, educator\, and former U.S. Marine Corps Combat Photographer. Specializing in documentary photography\, Troyer critically examines the lasting impact of war on individuals\, communities\, and culture. Drawing on his experiences as a veteran\, his work explores the intersections of war\, memory\, identity\, and consumer culture\, using a multifaceted approach to explore narratives that shape America’s understanding of conflict and its legacy. \n\n\n\nTroyer received his BFA\, with honors\, in Photography and Imaging from Ringling College of Art and Design in 2022 and an MFA in Studio Art from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2024. He is currently a Part-Time Lecturer at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. \n\n\n\nwww.troyermatthew.com \n\n\n\n@matthewtroyer \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday – Friday\, 12 -5 PM \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5PM

SUMMARY:back home art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Back Home \n\n\n\nSolo Student Exhibition by Zainab Adamou-Mohamed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 28 – February 1\, 2025\n\n\n\n Reception: Friday\, January 31st | 6-8p\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMore About Back Home \n\n\n\nBack Home is a collection of archival and original photographs taken by my parents and I during trips to the West African countries of Niger and Nigeria in 2008\, 2022\, and 2024. This exhibition is an exploration of the concept of home and memory through the lens of those returning and visiting home. \n\n\n\nI was born in the US to parents who immigrated from Niger in the early 2000s. My extended family resides in Niger\, including the cities of Niamey and Zinder. The majority of my father’s family resides in the northern Nigerian city of Kano. \n\n\n\nAs I look back on these photos\, questions surrounding the concept of memory and home frequently arise. \n\n\n\nWhat does it mean to remember a place as someone who grew up there versus someone who didn’t? What is the relationship between the people in these photos as they exist today and who they were in the moment the image was made? How do the images we choose to capture influence the memories we keep? \n\n\n\nThe curation and arrangement of these street scenes\, family gatherings\, and intimate portraits are a means of exploring those questions. Through my personal story of my family’s journey back home\, I invite viewers to examine their own definitions of memory\, family\, and homecoming. \n\n\n\nMore About Zainab Adamou-Mohamed \n\n\n\nZainab Adamou-Mohamed was born in 2003 in Greensboro\, North Carolina. She is currently pursuing her BA in Studio Art at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. She has previously been included in Crystallization: An Exhibition of Student Ceramics and Sculpture (2023) at the Greensboro Project Space and the 125.2 volume of The Coraddi Art & Literary Magazine (2023). Her creative work explores the areas of culture\, belonging\, disconnect\, and the immigrant experience. \n\n\n\n@photo.by.zam\, @art.by.zam \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Open Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12:00-5:00pm \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2:00-5:00pm

SUMMARY:not Just Black and White Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Not Just Black and White\n\n\n\nAn Exploration of Rural Alternative Black Culture \n\n\n\nSolo Student Exhibition by Jalen M.M. Williams\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFebruary 4 -8 \, 2025\n\n\n\n Reception: Friday\, February 7th | 6-8p\n\n\n\nMore About Not Just Black and White \n\n\n\nNot Just Black and White is a powerful collection of prints\, illustrations\, and sculptures that delve into the experiences of an alternative Black person traversing the complexities of growing up in the rural Carolinas. This exhibition reflects a journey through identity\, spirituality\, and resilience in the face of adversity and prejudice. It captures the layered and nuanced nature of Black identity\, particularly in spaces that may feel disconnected from mainstream narratives. \n\n\n\nThe works in this exhibition serve as intimate depictions of the adolescence of Jalen Williams\, where he confronted the challenges of being an outsider within both his community and the broader cultural landscape. Through deliberate mark-making\, concentrated etching\, and the precision of sculpture\, Williams aims to communicate the deep emotional and psychological impact of these experiences. Each piece is an exploration of the contradictions and harmonies that have shaped him—of familial interactions\, struggles for self-definition\, and the strength of counterculture. \n\n\n\nWithin this exhibition\, Jalen Williams invites the viewer to look beyond binary notions of identity\, to see the spectrum of Blackness that exists in rural spaces\, and to engage with the stories of resistance\, connection\, and transformation that define his personal narrative. Not Just Black and White is not only a reflection on his upbringing\, but a broader understanding on how we all navigate the intersections of race\, identity\, and place. \n\n\n\nMore About Jalen M.M. Williams  \n\n\n\nJalen Martise Micquiel Williams (b. 2004) is a multidisciplinary North Carolina based artist that predominantly focuses on printmaking and illustration. Within his work\, Jalen Williams acutely observes the concepts of expression\, surrealism\, and counterculture. With the applied usage of various mediums and methods\, Williams pushes to gain self-reflection and introspection throughout his work as a unique Black individual. In obtaining a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Drawing and Printmaking\, Williams impels his studies by expanding upon unique identities\, stories\, and voices of other individuals in his works. In his compositions\, Williams prompts viewers to have a sense of reflection and understanding to the individuals around them. \n\n\n\n@Marty_Micq \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12:00-5:00pm \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2:00-5:00pm

SUMMARY:brilliant darkness: MFA art thesis exhibition
DESCRIPTION:BRILLIANT DARKNESS\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition \n\n\n\nby Nill Smith \n\n\n\nExhibition: April 1 – 5\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, April 4th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nI connect with water as a divine being. Vast bodies of water evoke a sublime experience akin to a connection to a god or goddess. Using this as a catalyst\, I engage in different mediums to speak to different narratives around water.  I construct work based on ideas of healing through purification. I take ‘snap shots’ of water through the use of cyanotypes and in turn\, honor these moments as sacred objects. I paint with a vibrant\, jewel toned\, saturated palette that still holds restraint. I think about the gesture of the body as an act of storytelling. Through poses\, I create narratives that dive into moments of suffering. These figures\, hunched over in sorrow and grief\, are in a state of limbo. They cover their faces in shame. Their eyes never meet your gaze. Intimate moments are put on display for the consumption of the viewer. I engage in mythologies both crafted and historically grounded. Histories such as the Middle Passage\, the ‘Black Atlantic’\, and The Door of No Return\, amongst others\, are interlaced into this series of work in addition to personal ambiguous narratives. Through these mythologies and histories\, I search for healing\, reinvention\, and liberation.   \n\n\n\nMore About Nill \n\n\n\nNill is an interdisciplinary artist\, predominantly working in painting\, ceramics\, and printmaking\, currently working out of North Carolina. Her work centers water as a conduit for purification and reinvention\, while holding histories of violence. Nill’s work has been shown at The North Carolina Museum of Art\, Weatherspoon Art Museum\, The McColl Center\, Prizm Art Fair\, Main Street Arts\, Shain Gallery\, and VAE Raleigh\, amongst others. She was the recipient of an Arts and Science Council grant\, and judge for the National Scholastics Competition.   \n\n\n\nLearn more: @theartistnill | Website: Theartistnill.com \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Hours \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12-5p \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5p

SUMMARY:Constructed Discontent: MFA Art Thesis Exhibition  
DESCRIPTION:Constructed Discontent \n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Celena Amburgey \n\n\n\nExhibition: April 8-12\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, April 11th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nConstructed Discontent explores the fragile yet forceful process of self-definition\, interrogating the tension between inherited narratives and those we create for ourselves. Through layered materials\, fragmented imagery\, and reassembled histories\, this body of work challenges the structures that shape personal and cultural identity\, questioning the forces that confine\, shape\, and ultimately reshape our sense of self. \n\n\n\nAt the core of this exhibition is an exploration of disruption and reconstruction—both emotionally and materially. Found objects\, repurposed textiles\, and unconventional surfaces serve as stand-ins for history and memory\, revealing how identity is constantly built\, unmade\, and remade. The work reflects on familial myths\, cultural expectations\, and the weight of external perceptions\, exposing the internal struggle between belonging and individuality. \n\n\n\nAmburgey’s process is deeply tied to time and labor—sewing\, layering\, embedding\, and obscuring. This physical engagement mirrors the psychological work of undoing past narratives and constructing new understandings. Materials such as plastic bags\, burlap\, and personal artifacts underscore the tension between value and disposability\, reflecting the artist’s ongoing interrogation of what is cherished and what is discarded—in material form and in personal history. \n\n\n\nBy confronting discontent as a catalyst for transformation\, Constructed Discontent explores how discomfort can become a space for healing. Rather than seeking resolution\, these works engage in the slow\, layered process of re-examining\, reconstructing\, and reclaiming identity. Through these acts of making and unmaking\, the exhibition offers a space where the past is not erased but actively reworked—suggesting that\, like identity\,—healing is a process of persistence\, choice\, and re-visioning \n\n\n\nMore About Celena  \n\n\n\nThrough painting\, collage\, and layered materials\, I explore identity’s fragile and fluid nature\, a journey ignited by the seismic revelation of a DNA test in 2021. This discovery fractured the foundations of my carefully constructed self\, shattering it into fragments. Art became my means of reassembly\, transforming personal reckoning into a universal meditation on resilience and reinvention. Each work reflects the process of claiming agency over inherited narratives—truths and deceptions—to construct a more intentional identity shaped by acceptance\, understanding\, and choice. \n\n\n\nAt the heart of my practice is the act of layering\, where paint\, collage\, and family photographic archives converge to reconstruct identity. I use paint as collage\, merging fragments of memory with the past and present to reshape my understanding of self. Once static relics\, these inherited photographs become dynamic surfaces where paint and collage obscure\, alter\, and reveal\, collapsing time and reshaping personal history. While rooted in personal experience\, this process extends beyond self-exploration\, questioning how identity is shaped by familial memory\, collective history\, and materiality. The layering of images and textures mimics how identity is formed—through accumulation\, erasure\, and reinterpretation. Like identity\, objects are never static; they carry the weight of time\, labor\, and memory\, continuously reshaped by use and perception. \n\n\n\nMaterials like pennies\, burlap\, and bed sheets carry layered histories\, their transformations mirroring the shifting nature of value and belonging. Tarnished pennies\, once insignificant and easily overlooked\, become markers of perseverance and worth\, reflecting how meaning is shaped by perception and context. With its rugged texture and utilitarian past\, burlap speaks to resilience—stitched\, stretched\, and painted upon\, it becomes a foundation for deconstruction and renewal. Once bearing the weight of familiarity and comfort\, bed sheets are repurposed as vessels for new narratives\, their fibers holding the echoes of past lives while offering space for reinvention. By repurposing these materials\, I explore how objects\, like identities\, are never static but continuously reshaped by time\, labor\, and memory. \n\n\n\nMy work is a quiet rebellion\, where past and present collide\, discarded things breathe again\, and vulnerability holds weight like stone. Here\, identity is not fixed but fluid\, not given but claimed\, not lost but waiting to be seen. Even the fragments—the forgotten\, the fractured\, the worn—hold infinite possibilities\, if we dare to see anew. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Open Public Hours \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12-5p \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5p

SUMMARY:NYANSAPO: Mfa Art Thesis exhibition
DESCRIPTION:NYANSAPO (Wisdom Knot)\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Paul Stanley Mensah\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: April 15 – 19\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Saturday\, April 19th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIn this evocative collection\, Ghanaian artist Paul Stanley Mensah bridges the past and present through a dynamic interplay of metal\, wood\, leather\, and fabric. Rooted in the rich traditions of Ghanaian heritage\, his work delves into the enduring impact of slavery\, the power of unity\, and the wisdom embedded in Akan proverbs and Adinkra symbolism. \n\n\n\nThrough sculptural forms and textile compositions\, Paul Stanley Mensah transforms historical narratives into tangible expressions\, using weathered metal to echo resilience\, embossed leather to preserve ancestral voices\, and fabric to weave together stories of cultural identity. The Adinkra symbols\, imbued with philosophical depth\, serve as a visual lexicon\, reminding us of the strength in unity and the lessons history offers. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is a dialogue between past and future\, a call to reflection\, and a celebration of heritage. It invites viewers to engage with the complexities of history while embracing the enduring spirit of community and wisdom that defines Ghanaian culture. \n\n\n\nMore About Paul Stanley Mensah \n\n\n\nMy art practice contextualizes Ghanaian proverbs\, Adinkra symbols\, and childhood stories\, using metal\, wood and other indigenous materials like leather and fiber to create abstract and metaphoric human size/ large size sculpture. These proverbs were passed down to me by my late mother. With large scale installations\, I seek to pass down these proverbs and symbols to my daughter and the new generation to preserve and promote Ghanaian culture and heritage. These Proverbs\, Adinkra symbols and stories convey messages of kindness\, faithfulness\, perseverance\, integrity\, love\, and courage. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Open Public Hours \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12-5p \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5p
