SUMMARY:Crossing the Coulee
DESCRIPTION:Kate Gordon’s studio practice focuses on painting in the expanded field\, sourcing inspiration from pop-up books\, dioramas\, and collage. The dream imagery that Gordon mines aims to capture the strangeness of the waking world\, which is often not as logical as it might at first appear. Gordon has shown her paintings\, collages\, and video works nationally; exhibitions include a site-specific installation “Alligator Naps” at the Hilliard Art Museum\, curation into the Weatherspoon Art Museum’s “Art on Paper” exhibition\, and an invitation to create a public video installation at Block 2\, a visual platform for new media artists in Raleigh\, NC. Most recent professional accomplishments include participation in Kolaj Institute’s Artist Residency in Scotland\, curation into “Is This Too Much?”\, a maximalist exhibition at Le Mieux Galleries\, and inclusion in the “Louisiana Contemporary” exhibition at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Gordon currently holds the position of Associate Professor of Figure Drawing & Foundations at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. She earned an M.F.A. from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and a B.F.A. from Pratt Institute. \n\n\n\nExhibition runs October 16 – December 5\, 2025 Monday – Friday\, 8am – 4pmArtist Talk and Reception October 16\, 4:30pm

SUMMARY:that which remains art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:That Which Remains\n\n\n\nExhibition by Leigh Ann Hallberg and Paul Bright\n\n\n\nSeptember 16 – 27\, 2025\n\n\n\n*Reception: Friday\, Sept 19th | 6-8P\n\n\n\n*Gallery walk-through with artists\, 6:30p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About That Which Remains  \n\n\n\nBeginning with our hominin ancestors\, artists have always made use of found materials\, recovered objects\, and their specific qualities to create art. But increasingly\, materials for art became subsumed mostly as vehicles for depiction and expression; as a means to an end. The singular qualities of the materials of art begin to reassert themselves in the late 19th C\, not merely coincidentally with the rise of photography. The photograph\, so successful in recording the specificity of surfaces\, the lighting and chiaroscuro of forms\, the “facts” of appearances\, allowed a medium like paint to more freely exhibit its inherent qualities\, even when used in the service of depiction. (Much of Impressionism was structured and animated by this interplay of the physicality of evident paint and the expression it facilitated.) The introduction of collage in Cubism and the conceptual deployment of found objects in the work of Duchamp et al\, brought intense focus on the materials of art as well as the proposition that art no longer needed be as created as it had been. It could be composed of preexisting things\, found and repurposed objects\, in a new\, industrialized world of burgeoning objects of all kinds. The artist’s role in this context was largely that of selector – not unlike a photographer taking a picture – finding or stumbling across the right object to convey an intended meaning\, a meaning which very often arose in part from the found object itself\, which carried a history of past use and significance that intertwined with its new role as art object. Improvisatory\, aleatory or chance methodologies often guided selection of the objects and the creation of these works. Our work in That Which Remains acknowledges this lineage and these approaches in varying degrees. \n\n\n\nOur respective work is diverse in the forms it assumes\, in its intentions\, and in its stylistic permutations. But in That Which Remains\, we are presenting works that share  \n\n\n\na focus on traces\, palimpsests\, residue\, and remnants. With the commonality of being made from detritus\, from the Found\, of discarded parts and fragments\, the works evince improvisation\, construction\, and accretion as compositional methods. The work is varied but coheres through conceptual\, aesthetic\, and visual overlaps. Our interventions on our chosen objects can be minimal or subtle\, but they are significant. \n\n\n\nLeigh Ann’s work evinces a preoccupation with lineage\, phenomena of “nature\,” and scales of time and experience\, in both the outer and inner worlds of human experience and the related proportionality of abstraction and figuration. It incorporates manipulated and reconfigured heirlooms; a woman’s dress gloves (Chirality); a sectioned and reconfigured Murray Bay wool blanket (Murray Bay: Standing Wave; a broken plate with inscribed figures of a seemingly runic numerology (3:2); re-embroidered linens (Leighs\, Nana’s Helix); and durational paintings called Accretions. She also presents an elegant metaphor for our toxic\, over-consumptive present\, Core Sample\, a totem holding layered and compressed plastic waste\, reminiscent of glacial ice samples containing the stratified atmospheric history of eons.  \n\n\n\nPaul’s are fundamentally abstract works\, even when they are composed of figurative or recognizable elements. They eschew or disrupt narrative. They traffic in advertising imagery – the “de/collages” of found materials and removed posters\, the serendipitous Tear Sheets – and the found materials that pervade our lives (Just Like A Box). He is interested in how the physical degradation of their components mirrors their materialist and often retrograde messages. However\, when these elements and ambiguous images are recontextualized in collaged compositions\, they reveal an unexpected poetry. This is also elicited from the “aural quotidian” in his sound collages’ arrangement of found and recorded sounds (Wet in Dry)\, while the direct\, minimal contrasts of topical printed matter (of Minor Interventions) opportunistically reveals the unintended irony or ready-made satire of their sources. \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:Fantastic creatures\, Beautiful beasts art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Fantastic Creatures\, Beautiful Beasts \n\n\n\nExhibition by Paige Cox & Natalie Schorr\n\n\n\n August 26 – 30\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, August 29th | 6-8P\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Fantastic Creatures\, Beautiful Beasts  \n\n\n\nWhat if you gave your imagination total freedom? \n\n\n\nStrange creatures\, imagined worlds\, curious hybrids—do they only exist in our minds\, or can we bring them to life? \n\n\n\nThis work lives in that in-between space\,where fantasy becomes form and play becomes purpose. \n\n\n\nColors misbehave. Materials mix in unexpected ways.There are no rules about size\, shape\, or seriousness. \n\n\n\nIt’s about creating for the sheer joy of it.About letting imagination lead\, wherever it wants to go. \n\n\n\nSometimes it’s funny. Sometimes it’s unsettling.Often\, it’s both. \n\n\n\nNow feels like a good time to escape a little—to let our minds bend toward something beautifully strange. \n\n\n\nEnjoy some happiness! \n\n\n\nNatalie and Paige \n\n\n\nMore About Paige Cox  \n\n\n\nPaige Cox\, a fiber artist based in North Carolina\, is celebrated for her distinctive textile creations and inventive sculptures using paper mache’ and  found objects. Known for her experimentation with various materials and techniques like felting\, weaving\, tufting\, and up-cycled art assembly\, Paige currently focuses on creating art to help us escape. \n\n\n\nInfusing her work with lively colors and textures\, she brings a playful touch and a sense of humor to her pieces. Paige strives to make her art approachable\, inviting people to engage with art and enjoy experiencing works made to provoke a smile.  \n\n\n\nPaige Cox uses fiber like some people use fireworks: loud\, unpredictable\, and guaranteed to leave an impression. This North Carolina-based artist spins vibrant sculptures from tufted yarn\, scrap fabric\, and bits of upcycled  treasures she finds irresistible. Her art is rooted in whimsy\, but her vision is clear: fiber is a tool for connection\, not just decoration. \n\n\n\nTufting anchors her process—quick\, immersive\, and joyfully chaotic. Her pieces vibrate with energy\, overflowing with color and touchable texture. There’s a sense of invitation in her work\, a wink of mischief that says: come closer\, it’s okay to laugh. \n\n\n\nCox doesn’t stay still. She leaps between mediums—felting\, weaving\, found-object collage—guided by a love of the unexpected. Materials are sourced from anywhere and everywhere\, reimagined into forms that feel both familiar and fantastical. \n\n\n\nHer goal? To make art that resonates on a gut level—fun to look at\, fun to think about\, and maybe even fun to hold. She’s not afraid of color\, not afraid of play\, and definitely not afraid to remind us that art can be strange and sincere at the same time. \n\n\n\nTo learn more follow Paige on instagram @paigecox_art \n\n\n\nMore About Natalie Schorr  \n\n\n\nBorn into the waning days of the Eisenhower administration\, Natalie’s work is influenced by her memories of the 1960s and 70s\, and is usually based on people and emotions rather than places or things. \n\n\n\nNatalie Schorr spent 12 years working as an art director and set designer in motion pictures and television before leaving to raise her children. Her early work focused on realistic drawing and watercolor. In 1999\, she added printmaking to her skills\, experimenting extensively with early photopolymers and other nontoxic methods.  \n\n\n\nOver time\, Natalie’s work has become more focused on analog collage mixed media\, frequently employing printmaking as a starting point. Her current work includes old and recycled items\, with works primarily relating to memory and social comment arising from past trauma. Natalie believes that in a perfect moment\, mixed media brings together all her skills to create something no one skill or medium could possibly express.  \n\n\n\nAfter living in several cities over 4 states\, Natalie recently returned to Greensboro\, NC. She holds a BFA in Costume Design from the University of North Carolina Greensboro\, and an MFA in Scene Design from Carnegie Mellon University. Her studio includes a large printing press and an embarrassingly comprehensive supply of old magazines\, wallpapers and ephemera. \n\n\n\nMy work comes from my personal experiences and memories\, and it expresses feelings I cannot adequately explain with words. As with most pop surrealism there is usually an element of humor that’s obscure\, which helps me cope with life. \n\n\n\nTo learn more visit her website here and follow her on Instagram @natalieschorrart  \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:This black feeling Art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This Black Feeling\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Zaire Miles-MoultriE \n\n\n\n August 19 – August 23\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, August 22nd | 6-8P\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About This Black Feeling \n\n\n\nThis Black Feeling is a culmination of my artistic evolution thus far\, bringing together works from ongoing and completed projects\, individual pieces\, and exploratory sketches. Serving as a window into my visual world\, it reveals the techniques\, narratives\, and emotions that define my practice. \n\n\n\nMoving between the surreal and the real\, my work is imbued with a recurring sensation of black\, but not bleak. A duality of darkness that is rich\, not empty\, a space of possibility rather than absence. For me black and Blackness (both as a color and a social construct) carries a profound complexity: it is a lived reality\, rich with depth\, emotion\, beauty\, a timeless resonance\, and so much more. Through this collection of works\, I invite viewers to engage with their layered meaning and the enduring power of black both as an aesthetic and a conceptual force. \n\n\n\nMore About Zaire  \n\n\n\nRooted in my Southern upbringing\, my work explores Blackness—both a social construct and a lived reality—alongside spirituality and otherness\, transforming the familiar into the mystical. Using biblical iconography\, antique Black figures\, and flora and fauna\, I depict the surreal duality of Southern Black existence. My practice lives at the intersection of heritage and imagination\, where history meets possibility. \n\n\n\nMy collages become portals to examine identity and collective memory. Each piece begins with meticulous research into historical figures\, objects\, and events. I then employ various printmaking techniques to create imagery that I cut\, stitch\, and layer in a deliberate act of storytelling. Using both analog and digital collage methods\, I construct intricate compositions guided by a simple philosophy: If I can’t find it\, I’ll make it; if I can’t make it\, I’ll find it. The work comes to life through traditional printmaking processes like screen-printing and lithography. \n\n\n\nUltimately\, my practice celebrates resilience and the enduring power of printmaking and collage to provoke thought\, stir emotion\, and ignite change. By embracing their transformative potential\, I affirm that every piece carries the power to rewrite history\, reclaim agency\, and reimagine the world anew—for my nieces and nephews\, and for all of us. \n\n\n\nTo learn more follow Zaire on instagram @that_zaire \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:Summer Studios: Arts on Site! The GPS Student Artist Residency Program
DESCRIPTION:Summer Studios: Arts on Site! \n\n\n\nThe GPS Student Residency Program\n\n\n\nAugust Artists-in-Residence: mckenna jones\, Melanie St Clair\, Remus Steward\, knia Williamson\,\n\n\n\nAugust Cohort | August 4 – 16\, 2025\n\n\n\nPublic Open Studio Hours:\n\n\n\nAug 11th | 12-3p\n\n\n\nAug 13th | 2-5p\n\n\n\nAug 15th | 6-8p\, Celebratory Reception \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space is pleased to present its 3rd Annual Summer Studios: Arts on Site! student residency program. This residency program will assist in educating students that GPS can also act as makerspace\, where they can play\, experiment\, take creative risks\, and develop their artistic voice. \n\n\n\nDesigned to support UNCG undergraduate student artists (BA + BFA) striving to develop\, adapt\, and/or reinvent their creative process and to promote artistic growth and development\, artists are afforded two-weeks of uninterrupted research and development\, coupled with financial support and public presentational platforms to share their creative work. The residency’s mission is to be an adaptive space to build a sustaining art community for our UNCG students so their creativity and connection to the Greensboro community thrives.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAugust Cohort \n\n\n\nMcKenna Jones (BFA Art History\, minor Art Administration) plans to investigate the relationship between gender\, body image issues\, and chronic illness. Drawing from personal\, first-hand experience\, they want to illustrate these frustrations associated with these issues and analyze the reasons why these issues are connected to each other through their artwork. \n\n\n\nMelanie St Clair (BFA Printmaking and Drawing) is heavily inspired by paintings of Kusozu\, the nine stages of death\, created in the Edo period of Japan by Buddhist artists. She wants to create imagery reminding us of decay through the use of bones\, old photos\, graves\, rot\, flowers and love. This will include incorporating photography and digital collage to depict the cycle of decay. These images will be created via cyanotypes and photosensitive emulsions in order to utilize sunlight to shed warmth on such a complicated topic. They will be printed onto recycled paper that will be made in the studio. \n\n\n\nRemus Steward (BFA Sculpture and Ceramics) intends to develop an installation with optional participation based on sense and memory. They plan to experiment with soft sculpture\, sound and video\, tactile and wearable elements. During the Open Artist Studio Hours and Informal Closing Celebration\, they plan to give the audience the choice of participating in open and short performance-led engagements with the physical and auditory materials they produce. A main objective is to craft and engage with physical objects that will aid in the explorative process\, also acting as manifestations of memory in the real world. Memories can be triggered in a variety of ways\, and frequently have ties to specific scents\, places\, or media. By using physical sensory objects\, audio\, and projected video they will be creating an environment in which to explore these associations. \n\n\n\nKnia Williamson (BFA Sculpture and Ceramics) intends on creating flower vessels inspired by her previous work\, Entomophily\, a simple form accentuated with floral designs. She specifically wants insight into how material impacts the aesthetic and perception of her work. This will be done with the objective of investigating how the form evolves in size\, shape\, and style. She proposes using a variety of materials that extend beyond her current use of earthenware clay\, experimenting with plaster\, fabric\, and air-dry clay to allow for discovery of how the materials impact the perception of the vessels. This exploration will allow her to assess if the new materials elevate or challenge the success of her original design.

SUMMARY:Third Annual BA ART Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Third Annual BA Art Exhibition 2025 \n\n\n\nCurated by UNCG Students Sarah Dawkins & Beyonce Kee\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: May 6 – 10\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Saturday\, May 10th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nThis is the third annual instillation of the Bachelor of Arts Student Art Exhibition. This exhibition is rooted in giving BA majors a space to exhibit the work they’ve been working on throughout their degree. BA students approached Greensboro Project Space to open an exhibition to celebrate graduating BA students. Many students had compiled work throughout their degree and wanted to share. Pursuing a BA gives students a wide net to cast into creative waters as we pursue academia in the arts. Having a collaged community of artists studying in this context gives us creative exposure to each other’s making practices as we share our work within and outside of that community.  \n\n\n\nMore About Curator\, Sarah Dawkins \n\n\n\nAs my art studies have altered during my time at UNCG my love and admiration for the study of art and the space has only grown as this expansion is embedded in my practice. Being exposed and encouraged to a range of materials and methodology through study of art history and portfolio building early on with peers specifically has been so broadening for my psyche and life. I’m taking away creative broadening treasures with me\, passed down from well versed faculty that I will use throughout my practice.  \n\n\n\nMore About Curator\, Beyonce Kee \n\n\n\nAs a BA student and student curator\, I co-curated this exhibition not just to uplift our peers but because curating became an unexpected passion that grew from my love of building artistic community. My first experiences organizing shows revealed how powerful it is to create space for others\, and this exhibition continues that mission. With no set theme\, the work on display reflects the individuality\, experimentation\, and vision of each artist. This show is both a celebration and a declaration: that our voices matter\, and that curatorial work can be an act of care\, advocacy\, and joy. \n\n\n\nFeaturing Student Artists \n\n\n\nAlexis Guieb-AlimbuyuguenBeyonce KeeJadeja GainesJordan VadenLinda Parker BoikeMegan DeetsMorgan JarczaszekRachel WitzelSarah DawkinsSarah HinesSparrow Ussery IntintoloThea NettletonZainab Adamou-Mohamed \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Open 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
