SUMMARY:4th annual BA student art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:4th Annual BA Student Exhibition \n\n\n\nCurated by GPS Interns: \n\n\n\nNaomi Chavez\, Kate Currivan\, Melanie St. Clair\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: May 5-9\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Thursday\, May 7th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nThis exhibition marks the fourth annual Bachelor of Arts student exhibition hosted by Greensboro Project Space. Students are given the opportunity to display the skills that they have built during their time as an undergraduate student at UNC Greensboro. Greensboro Project Space is proud to showcase BA students’ ambition\, drive\, and creative power to our community. These students have formed their own journey on their own terms; exploring painting\, drawing\, printmaking\, sculpture\, animation\, and new media. We invite you to experience and celebrate their creative development throughout their academic journey. \n\n\n\nMore about the Student Curators  \n\n\n\nNaomi Chavez \n\n\n\nAs a BFA student\, concentrating in New Media and Design\, I found it enjoyable to curate this exhibition with the help of my peers and gain insight into how things work behind the scenes. As an artist\, I aim to create work that is more accessible\, which is why I intend on working in the UX/UI field to design brands with the viewer in mind. Seeing others’ work is inspiring\, and understanding how artists express themselves through their art is a meaningful experience. I applied my love for detail while helping curate this show and I’m glad that we are providing a space for BA artists to share their work and be recognized\, especially since they are often overlooked.  \n\n\n\nKate Currivan \n\n\n\nAs a curator for this year’s BA Show\, I find it important to bridge the gap between the structured academic environment of the UNC Greensboro’s School of Art and the emotional and often experimental energy of our larger art community. This exhibition serves as both a conclusion and a debut for our BA students; a final synthesis of four years of undergraduate study and the first significant step into the professional art landscape. \n\n\n\nMelanie St. Clair  \n\n\n\nThe BA show is a chance for the students to showcase their hard work and passion during their time at UNCG. It is important that students understand and realize their power and impact as artists\, and shows like these bring together our larger community to appreciate and understand one another. As an artist\, our most important tool is our voice. We all care and feel deeply\, and these intangible thoughts manifest themselves into our physical world through our craft. Every student at UNCG deserves to have their work seen and celebrated.

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis Art exhibition: kathryn hood
DESCRIPTION:Homebody\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Kathryn Hood\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: April 28 – May 2\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, May 1st\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nHomebody is an exhibition of collages and sculptures in which Kathryn Hood carves her perceptions of tense muscles into paper and upholstery foam. She embraces the body-mind connection\, an essential tool for self-understanding\, as she houses ungrounded avatars within handmade paper and muscular furnishings outside of formal traditions. Hood composes the interior feelings of ideas & emotions with the exterior feeling of tension. This duality of perception reflects the disparate nature of themes explored\, such as femininity\, domesticity\, and the performance of identity. \n\n\n\nHomebody is the residence of textured perceptions. This space is an act of resensitization. \n\n\n\nMore About Kathryn \n\n\n\nKathryn Hood (b. 1996) is a collagist\, sculptor\, and creative doer who carves tense muscles into paper and foam then furnishes them in acts of resensitization. She investigates the thresholds of perception & of living with/as a sense of self. Hood’s 3-dimensional work evolved from a fascination with her maternal grandmother’s porcelain dinnerware. Evaluating its character and its politics\, she applies its label of domesticity to bodily sensations and identity performance. Hood lives and works in North Carolina.  \n\n\n\nLearn more www.kathryn-hood.com | IG: @kathrynhoodart

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis art exhibition: victoria mercado-lues
DESCRIPTION:Garden of Corporeal Fantasy\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Victoria Mercado-Lues \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: April 21 – 25\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, April 24th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nBrightly saturated and fantastical\, Garden of Corporeal Fantasy explores the meeting of nature and flesh in oil paintings and ceramics. With invented creatures and visceral biological imagery\, the works reframe the gaze towards the bodily through a lens of wonder — a less punitive lens than the centuries-long and still recurring traditions of bodies as commodified\, objectified\, or sinful.  \n\n\n\nThis exhibition addresses our discomfort surrounding the body by combining it with the godly imposing presence of the landscape\, like waterfalls and billowing clouds. In this combination\, the work is imbued with a devotional\, almost sacred quality\, borrowing visuals of the holy and filling it with the biological. The sticky\, hairy\, fleshy becomes something worth staring at with open fascination\, the same way we are in awe of exotic plants\, or deep-sea creatures\, illuminating the sublime inherent in the corporeal.  \n\n\n\nBy zooming in on the glistening\, wet thresholds\, the work blurs the boundary between interior and exterior anatomy. Tendrils and drips converge to give birth to strange life forms and new worlds that explore sensuality\, womanhood\, and the fantastic.  \n\n\n\nDocumenting a coming of age\, Garden of Corporeal Fantasy acknowledges the fullness of becoming a woman: the awareness of feeling both precious and strange\, once intimately known\, yet foreign to yourself. In creating these fantastical ecologies\, the work insists on its own terms for beauty\, redefined through tender curiosity.  \n\n\n\nMore About Victoria  \n\n\n\nVictoria Mercado-Lues (b. 2003) is a Mexican-American artist whose oil paintings\, ceramics\, and collage conjure vivid ecologies of invented creatures and fantastical flesh. Her work merges the biological with the devotional\, reframing the body as a site of wonder rather than shame. \n\n\n\nMercado-Lues received her BFA from the University of South Florida and her MFA from the University of North Carolina Greensboro\, where she was awarded a residency through GROW in partnership with Creative Greensboro. Her work has been exhibited nationally at the Carolyn M. Wilson Gallery\, International Museum of Surgical Science\, Proxy Design Gallery\, and the Sechrest Gallery\, among others.  \n\n\n\nLearn more at victoriamercadolues.wixsite.com/arts  | IG: @victoriamercadolues

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis Art exhibition: inga manticas
DESCRIPTION:Love would feel like this\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Inga Manticas\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApril 14 -18\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, April 17th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nIf I had one wish … \n\n\n\nLove would feel like this consists of drawings and sculptures that grew up together in my studio. It’s a forest\, a river of new substances\, a procession of characters with disputed and shifting identities\, material marriages\, corkboards of a conspiracy theorist\, and whatever else might be attracted to this place.  \n\n\n\nI am trying to communicate with beings whose spirits and material forms are very different from my own. Beings who we can feel but cannot see or name\, who exist two places at once\, who have hundreds of identities\, who are the opposites of themselves\, who contain all the rest of us. What practices and processes can put me in touch with plants\, land spirits\, gods\, animals\, hills\, rivers\, gems\, gnomes\, ghosts\, past or lost selves\, the numinous and ineffable?  \n\n\n\nI wonder what I can say to them and what I can give them\, and I try to hear their responses. I wonder\, how can I love them? How can I feel their love back? How can I feed or house them? Should I? \n\n\n\nHow can I speak about them to others? Should I? \n\n\n\nSome more questions that made this show:  \n\n\n\nWhile I’m making an object\, am I taking commands from a spirit who wants to inhabit it?  \n\n\n\nOr\, when I make an object (a body)\, does a spirit arrive to inhabit it\, choosing it based on its material and spatial characteristics? \n\n\n\nOr\, does the material create its own spirit? \n\n\n\nWhat kinds of drawing practices can reveal what is invisible in the space around us?  \n\n\n\nWhat languages do I have access to\, by way of my interaction with the material world?  \n\n\n\nHow can I eliminate the distinction between a body and a place\, a body and a landform? \n\n\n\nWhat spiritual work happens in the forest\, and what spiritual work happens in the studio? \n\n\n\nHow many new bodies can I make for myself? \n\n\n\nMore About Inga  \n\n\n\nInga Manticas is a visual artist from northern California\, now living between North Carolina and New York. Their studio practice joins drawing\, frottage\, found object assemblage\, metal and ceramic sculpture\, and the development of new sculpture materials.  \n\n\n\nIn their work\, Manticas reaches towards connection with spiritual and other-than-human beings. Rooted in personal encounters with unknown presences in the landscape\, their work luxuriates in the mysteries of how identity\, consciousness\, and power manifest in the material world. They draw inspiration from fairytales\, environmental histories\, animist cosmologies\, and their own fantasies of alternative embodiment.

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis Art Exhibition: sofia aguilar
DESCRIPTION:Nepantla\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Sofia Aguilar \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: April 7 – 11\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, April 10th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nAn exploration of living between cultures\, Nepantla weaves together memory\, myth\, and lived experience to make the in-between visible. \n\n\n\nNepantla takes its name from a Nahuatl word meaning “in-between\,” a space of transition and becoming that reflects my experience as a second-generation Mexican American navigating cultures\, languages\, and geographies. Raised within oral traditions and stories from my grandparents\, I first understood Mexico as something carried inside the home; later travels to Mexico and an artist residency in the Netherlands expanded that understanding\, deepening my awareness of hybridity and adaptation. Through printmaking\, painting\, and paper weaving\, I build a vibrant visual language rooted in heritage and layered iconography\, with woven works acting as metaphors for cultural transmission—interlaced\, frayed\, and resilient. Recurring figures such as the Tecuan from traditional dance and my skeletal cowgirl\, inspired by Mexica cosmology\, inhabit contemporary settings\, collapsing temporal boundaries so that ancestral histories and present realities coexist\, woven together in an ongoing search for belonging. \n\n\n\nMore About Sofia \n\n\n\nSofia Aguilar is a Mexican-American artist working in printmaking\, painting\, and paper weaving. As a second-generation Mexican American raised among two older generations\, she explores what it means to carry a homeland within a home. Her vibrant compositions draw from Mexica iconography\, folklore\, and contemporary culture\, blending carved lines\, layered textures\, and woven forms to celebrate cultural memory\, duality\, and bicultural identity. \n\n\n\nLearn more about Sofia: www.dvyf1y.com  | IG: @dvyf1y

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis art exhibition: sammi eady
DESCRIPTION:Mind’s Eye\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Sammi Eady\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: March 31 – April 4\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Saturday\, April 4th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nMind’s Eye is an exhibition revealing the contention between how the mind and the body remember a space. \n\n\n\nFrom childhood homes\, first jobs\, and card games\, landmarks from my past are mapped through ongoing perception rather than fixed recordings. Relying on mind palaces and other mnemonic devices\, both somatic and psychological approaches of visualization result in mixed perspective landscapes. Vulnerable fabrics bunch with memory. Artifacts extracted from these mappings indulge in their permeability. \n\n\n\nMind’s Eye is a metaphysical world in which memory is re-imbued into the blueprints of its infrastructures\, embracing the distortion of perception that happens during repeated recollection. \n\n\n\nMore About Sammi \n\n\n\nIn my practice\, I navigate themes of memory and embodiment through fiber art. Stemming from an urgency to recite and document domestic interiors current and past\, I rely on transmissive recollection to reconstruct these sites under both trusting and skeptical guises. My work harnesses formal qualities of color\, perspective\, and light to pinpoint intersections between mental exaggeration and lost accuracies. Through this process\, I question the viability of collective experiences\, counteract future states of disembodiment\, and retreat into past states of being. \n\n\n\nBorn in Lakeland\, Florida\, I attended the University of Florida in 2024 before moving to Greensboro\, North Carolina to pursue an MFA in studio art at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro. \n\n\n\nLearn more about Sammi: IG @scr4mmi

SUMMARY:MFA Thesis Art Exhibition: Calvin Ulrich
DESCRIPTION:Reconstituted Lands\n\n\n\nMFA Thesis Exhibition\n\n\n\nby Calvin Ulrich \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: March 24 – 28\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, March 27th\, 6-8p\n\n\n\nReconstituted Lands is a reimagination of the landscape painting tradition.  \n\n\n\nThe instability of the environment contained within these works is both reflective of current global climate realities and a symbol of the intersection between place and identity. As such\, the depiction of space contains a certain malleability that can be mended\, stitched together\, or forcefully combined. A grafted terrain results\, wedged like clay\, evolving and impermanent. \n\n\n\nThrough a more active depiction of nature as a dynamic and living force\, some agency is given back to it. Trees become an inhabitant of the landscape with individual life and influence. Waterfalls dissipate into chromatic clouds\, acting as smoke signals for an environment under stress. And elephants become a destructive force that challenges hierarchies of power. The unique ability of painting allows for an acknowledgement of the pessimistic ecological certainties of today\, while also suggesting the optimism of nature’s resilience. \n\n\n\nTo reconstitute is both to change the form and to restore. This body of work seeks that balance\, changing the form of nature genre painting\, and restoring my own relationship to place. The more you become lost in the unfamiliar environments of invented worlds\, the easier it is to understand where you have been before. \n\n\n\nMore About Calvin \n\n\n\nCalvin Ulrich’s large scale and intricate work expands upon the range of historic landscape traditions through a colliding of disparate topographic features and natural terrain. His paintings and drawings explore the memory and ecological time scales of mountains\, trees\, and animals and their agency within the landscape. Calvin grew up in Harare\, Zimbabwe\, until the age of 10\, leading to his lifelong love of the natural world. Every member of his family has been charged by an elephant. \n\n\n\nLearn more about Calvin: calvinulrichfinearts.com | IG: @calvinulrich

SUMMARY:Say It Loud art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Say It Loud\n\n\n\nA Student Exhibition by North Carolina A&T Visual Arts Department  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarch 3-7\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Mar 6th | 6-8P\n\n\n\nMore About Say It Loud \n\n\n\nSay It Loud\, inspired by the iconic James Brown anthem\, is an exhibition that embraces the notion of making a statement with unwavering confidence. In the North Carolina A&T Visual Arts Department we strive to develop confident\, unapologetic\, and free-thinking artists that aren’t afraid to have their message heard. The works in this exhibition range from personal to collection narratives expressed through multiple mediums representative of what our artists think\, feel\, and know about the world. We feel that in the current landscape it is more important than ever to speak up and\, as James Brown said\, “SAY IT LOUD!”

SUMMARY:Paid parking art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Paid Parking\n\n\n\nExhibition by Kate Robinson & Heidi Zenisek \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFebruary 10-14\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Feb 13th | 6-8P\n\n\n\nMore About Paid Parking  \n\n\n\nRun\, don’t walk\, to Iceland’s hottest new attraction. If you’ve never been to Gjaldskylda\, you’re missing out! At least that’s what the hundreds of tourists tagging it on social media would like you to think. What is it\, you ask? A parking lot. More specifically\, it’s a parking lot that requires payment. Iceland has a specific online identity\, carefully crafted by the Icelandic Tourism Board. The Land of Fire and Ice\, renewable energy\, Northern lights\, geothermal spas… but as a trip to Gjaldskylda will illustrate\, social media can be deceiving.  \n\n\n\nWhat is Iceland beyond the oversaturated Instagram photos of waterfalls and TikTok drone footage of mountains? This exhibition is a collection of works that inadvertently explore this question. Heidi and Kate have had transformative experiences in Iceland over the years\, returning time after time to recharge their creative batteries and weave themselves into the culture. Upon return home\, moments of these trips find their way into their practices. This show is the result of their curiosity about the overlaps in their work inspired by Iceland and how their similar experiences have manifested in different ways. \n\n\n\nMore About Kate & Heidi  \n\n\n\nHeidi is an exaggerator of the sun and was raised by the moon. Surrounded by dirt\, corn\, cows\, and rust\, she was born in a barn to humble farmers. Soon after\, she became an Eastern Iowa 4-H child prodigy\, winning more ribbons than one can count. With those glory days well behind her\, she now spends her time making work that doesn’t necessarily depict the land\, but is of the land.  \n\n\n\nHaving witnessed firsthand the whimsy and brutality of nature\, her farmstead childhood has uniquely shaped the lens through which she views the world. Time is measured by the color of the fields and when babies are born. Vast expanses of crops are raised\, harvested\, and migrated. Large quantities of material are vigorously used for months\, then discarded or replaced\, and certain animals are only as valuable as their ability to procreate. Though her work often shifts in form\, material\, and concept\, those experiences will always underlie her practice. Heidi’s rural upbringing has taught her the difference between looking and seeing\, hearing and listening.  \n\n\n\nIt defined her understanding of good and bad \n\n\n\nCollapsed the distance between life and death \n\n\n\nThen showed her how to explore what lies in between. \n\n\n\nWith the rise of social media and AI\, Heidi has become interested in how we interact with what’s real. Throughout history\, from cave paintings to cathedrals\, from Monet to Ansel to Olafur\, humans have sought to capture and recreate nature. Before smartphones\, we made film slideshows\, traded shot glasses painted with palm trees\, drew sketches\, collected rocks\, pressed flowers\, and wrote songs.  Today\, we extend that impulse into the digital realm\, archiving obsessively with phone cameras and uploading as a souvenir\, proof\, or memory.  \n\n\n\nHeidi’s work questions whether this pursuit of simulating the isness of nature and the phenomena of the cosmos can be achieved. The wonder of the aurora borealis\, the solitude of standing in an infinite field\, the shimmer of moonlight on the ocean that causes something in your chest to expand–they are reminders that awe is as much a physical experience as it is an emotional one. Can that be recreated?  \n\n\n\nLearn more about Heidi: heidizenisek.com / @theheidz_

SUMMARY:american pony art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:American Pony\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Constantine Kerasilis\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 27-31\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Jan 30th | 6-8P\n\n\n\nMore About American Pony  \n\n\n\nAmerican Pony is a group of work consisting of paintings\, drawings\, prints\, and sculpture focused on the psychology of Americans under the rise of fascism. Simplified and abstracted within the metaphor of tortured ponies\, this series is autobiographical in nature. Each work weighs morals\, dreams\, fears\, self perception\, and unity amongst Americans over the course of 2025. Specifically the year that changed countless lives affected by American politics and social climate. The world as I know it rapidly changes\, for better or worse\, these ponies are saturated in analogies to process change\, they represent me and reflections of myself I see in so many others. Viewers are invited to think of themselves as I bear my mind for all to see and explore the complexities of their own mentality. \n\n\n\nMore About Constantine \n\n\n\nConstantine Kerasilis is an emerging visual artist based in Greensboro\, NC. Sculpture\, painting\, drawing\, and printmaking are all part of his visual language. He has graduated from the University of North Carolina Greensboro with a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts with a concentration in Printmaking & Drawing. He is inspired by the parallels of history\, his psychology\, and the socio/political climate of America. These themes are often laid within metaphorical visuals and experimental mixed media. \n\n\n\nFollow Constantine @constantinekerasilis / visit his website: constantinekerasilis.com

SUMMARY:Ghost choir art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:GHOST CHOIR\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Jason Lord \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanuary 13-24\, 2026\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Jan 23rd | 6-8P\n\n\n\nMore About Ghost Choir \n\n\n\nGHOST CHOIR is the convergence of a recurring image in my work and a studio practice that embraces the alter ego as generative disruption. \n\n\n\nIn the winter of 1996\, in a moment of intense emotion\, a sound came through me. What began as a wail became an emanation connecting the earth’s core\, through me\, to every star and planet. The sound was so old and so large I didn’t even try to claim it as my own\, even as a self-centered 23-year-old. The sound was not from me\, but it came through me\, connecting me to everything and everyone\, everywhere. \n\n\n\nIn and out of my studio\, I experiment with rules. Sometimes I use alter egos–embodied sets of rules–to push or disrupt certain predictable outcomes in my work. Each of these personae have a visual language and a mode of operation. This work is four of these studio personae–Otto\, Santiago\, Tammy\, and Njezan–making sense of the sound that came through me all those years ago\, performing its song in four-part harmony\, conducted by me. \n\n\n\nMore About Jason  \n\n\n\nJason Lord is an interdisciplinary artist\, designer\, and educator working in the American South. He grew up in a working-class\, Catholic family in rural Vermont\, where he inherited the experimental resourcefulness of the small town tinker\, inventing and building objects\, images\, and worlds out of humble materials \n\n\n\nHe utilizes an expansive toolbox of materials\, processes\, and strategies for thinking and making\, engaging in rigorous conceptual\, material\, and procedural experimentation through drawing\, installation\, painting\, print\, sculpture\, assemblage\, book arts\, social practice\, music composition and performance\, writing\, sound\, video\, photography\, and their many intersections. \n\n\n\nJason has been the recipient of a McColl Center Residency\, a Vermont Studio Center Fellowship\, the Windgate Distinguished Fellowship for Innovation in Craft from the Hambidge Center\, a Winter Residency Fellowship at Penland School of Craft\, a North Carolina Arts Council Artist Support Grant\, a CERF+ Grant\, a National Gallery of Art Teaching Fellowship\, and residencies at the Peter Bullough Foundation\, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts\, LEVEL Retreat\, and Pocosin Arts.  He has exhibited in numerous group and solo shows and taught classes and workshops to K-12 students\, undergraduates\, and adult learners in schools\, museums\, and art centers. He holds a BFA in Studio Art from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and an MFA in Studio Arts from the University of North Carolina-Greensboro. \n\n\n\nArtist Statement \n\n\n\nMy work begins with close looking. I am drawn to the small\, often overlooked moments where material\, environment\, and perception meet—shifts in light\, the accumulation of marks\, the fragile edges where one form becomes another. These moments become the raw material for a practice that moves between drawing\, sculpture\, installation\, and other time-based processes. Across these modes\, I explore the relationship between parts and wholes\, the mutability of the self\, and the ways identity is shaped by instability\, memory\, and environment. \n\n\n\nI often build systems that underscore possibility and invite change: modular structures that reconfigure with each installation\, drawings composed of repeated gestures that evolve over days or weeks\, and cyanotypes or cast forms shaped by weather\, light\, or erosion. I investigate how meaning gathers over time\, how fragments communicate with one another\, and how an artwork can become a living record of attention. \n\n\n\nEnvironmental and human ecologies inform much of my current research. I treat the studio\, the field\, and the classroom as interconnected sites of observation and experimentation. Small\, everyday phenomena—shadow patterns in winter light\, weather-worn surfaces\, discarded fragments—become openings into larger questions about presence\, change\, and the construction of meaning. In this sense\, my work is as much an inquiry into perception and attention as it is a material practice. \n\n\n\nUltimately\, I aim to make work that activates curiosity and invites viewers to slow down and notice how the world is built: not all at once\, but bit by bit\, through relationships among parts\, and through moments of fluctuation and renewal.

SUMMARY:childish work art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Childish Work\n\n\n\n Curated by Inga Manticas\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDecember 9- 13\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Dec 12th | 6-8P\n\n\n\nFeaturing Works by \n\n\n\n     Quan ApolloConner CalhounSammi EadyZaire Miles-Moultrie & Will HarveyMelanie McAllisterMegan Mehtameow meowMaggie MurphyPascal PeppeSabi ReyesMallie SanfordWendy SmallNill Smith\n\n\n\nMore About Childish Work \n\n\n\nOver the last several years\, I’ve noticed the adult artists around me increasingly using mediums\, processes\, and imagery traditionally associated with children’s art. Finger-painting\, dolls\, comic strips\, family photos\, imaginary friends\, toilet humor\, miniatures\, scribbles\, stencils\, stickers\, and proudly amateurish craftsmanship started to show up everywhere in my friends’ artwork\, and in mine. As we approached 25 or 30 or 40\, we seemed to be reaching back further into our creative histories for our materials and inspiration.   \n\n\n\nMy peers weren’t afraid of their work being labeled “childish.” Rather\, they welcomed comparison to the work of children\, and sought out resonance with the artwork that they themselves had made as kids. This way of working wasn’t purely escapist. It wasn’t a  rejection of the complexities of the world in favor of simplicity or ignorance. Rather\, these artists were each trying to weave a different form of consciousness – a childlike consciousness – into their work\, to access parts of their world that were much less rich\, or perhaps simply  incomprehensible\, when explained through purely “adult” terms.   \n\n\n\nSo\, the title of this show\, Childish Work\, turns an insult into an aspiration\, or a genre. The show brings together fourteen artists who I have met in New York and North Carolina\, each with a different connection to making childish work.  \n\n\n\nSome of the artists in the show make work out of found objects taken directly from their childhoods\, like dollhouses and Fisher Price TVs. Others paint with their fingers or draw scenes on Shrinky Dinks. Others emulate the graphic styles of coloring books and comics. Others attempt to recreate distant childhood memories. Others make works that reference the forms of toys and dolls: objects that could hypothetically be played with\, but also demand closer observation and may even repel touch.   \n\n\n\nSome of the artists in the show are current or former child educators\, others are parents\, others are the children of other artists in the show\, others have collaborated directly with children to make the works in the show. Some of these artists appear to be in dialogue with their sense of their own child-self\, blending adult precision with childlike play. Others reference childhood from an adult distance or use childlike materials to make an explicitly political statement. Others fully embody a childlike consciousness – or\, put more simply\, they just behave like children. Here\, that’s a compliment.   \n\n\n\nCuratorial Statement by Inga Manticas  \n\n\n\nI started this curatorial process with the questions: What does it mean to work in a child-like way\, and why do it? \n\n\n\nThese questions splintered into a myriad of other questions:   \n\n\n\n\n•Is childlike work always nostalgic? Can childlike work be future-thinking? Can childlike work live in the present with no clear reference to the past? \n\n\n\n•To what extent has children’s creativity been underestimated and/or limited by the mass-produced tools we associate with kids’ arts and crafts? And so what does it mean for an adult to use those same tools? How are these things conditioned by the time in which we were born; our class\, ethnicity\, and location; the kind of formal education we received?\n\n\n\n•What psychological or emotional space do artists tap into to make childish work\, and what strategies do they use to reach this space?\n\n\n\n•Does childlike work always have something to say about childhood itself? How and why do artists use childlike means to talk about adult experience?\n\n\n\n•Is making childlike work always about respecting and valuing children’s intelligence enough to emulate it? Or\, when does childlike work mock or objectify the child in order to communicate an adult perspective?\n\n\n\n•How does childlike work intersect with other discourses about diverse forms of intelligence\, embodiment\, and ability?\n\n\n\n•What do we often lack or fail to embody when we pursue a state of childlike creativity?\n\n\n\n•In what ways do we commonly idealize childhood\, and what do we leave out?\n\n\n\n•What can an adult artist’s use of childlike strategies in a particular body of work tell us about their practice in general?  \n\n\n\n\nThe works in this show answer these questions in a lot of beautiful\, off-putting\, gross\, cute\, and funny ways. \n\n\n\nI once heard a fellow teacher (I don’t remember who\, or else I would credit them for this line) say\, “Children are closer to our ancestors because they just arrived here on earth; they just came from the place where the dead live.” Our subsequent conversation moved through the idea that children are connected to a sense of time and place that is infinite and undivided\, but not untouched by life. \n\n\n\nWhen I think about this\, I imagine that as an adult\, making childlike work is about pursuing a kind of sight and speech that is expansively connective\, but which also bubbles up from a very deep\, internal space. It is emotional\, immediate\, responsive\, and unburdened by the performance of sophistication. It is an intelligence that is so unrestrained that it might access some new idea or new realm (whether within us or outside of us) beyond the comfort zone of our “adult” minds. Of course\, this is merely an ideal\, but I can feel many of the artists in this show reaching towards it – and also just trying to have fun. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Public Hours \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12-5p \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5p

DESCRIPTION:un hilo a veces rio\n\n\n\n[a thread sometimes river]\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Vida Zamora\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNovember 11 – 22\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Nov 21st | 6-8p\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMore About un hilo a ceces río [a thread sometimes river] \n\n\n\nun hilo a veces río [a thread sometimes river] is a collective\, image based sculptural composition that weaves time\, affect\, and world-making. In its assembly of “images\,” memory is not articulated through description nor representation\, but as a felt and active force in all its porosity–extending itself behind\, beyond and within singularity into the immanence of collectivity writ-large. The collaborators of this piece gathered\, made\, and worlded-with each other. In this act of sharing\, the life that emanated from their time together has been carefully and intentionally assembled into a map that leads nowhere but to the act of remembering itself: a latent potentiality that refuses to be defined and that inaugurates affect in an outward (shared) and inward (opaque) motion. Vida co-orchestrates–with Petra\, Patricia\, Lucy\, Martha\, and with the assistance of Anna\, Margaret\, Meijuan\, Sophie\, and Jessica–an piece that does not want to materialize\, but that finds a home in experience itself.  \n\n\n\nMore About Vida Zamora \n\n\n\nVida Zamora [b.1998; Puebla] is a transdisciplinary artist in constant errancy. She graduated from MICA [MD] with a BFA\, and was a UnionDocs [NY] Collaborative Studio Fellow. After graduating\, she dealt with immigration and gender affirming care\, yet recently gained access to a studio setting to continue her practice. Her work has been exhibited in programs at DIFFUSION [Canada]\, Millennium Film Workshop [NY]\, UnionDocs [NY]\, FISURA [Mexico]\, Badn?m [India]\, Cinema Parallels [Bosnia]\, and perfect lovers [NC] by curators such as the Re:assemblage collective\, Adriana Trujillo\, Michellè st.

SUMMARY:Beautiful In My Eyes art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Beautiful In My Eyes\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Grace Thompson\n\n\n\n September 30 – October 4\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, October 3rd | 6-8P\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Beautiful in My Eyes \n\n\n\nBeautiful in My Eyes features a group of observational oil paintings that focus on capturing lived moments in time. The work in this exhibit evokes memories of paused moments in daily life\, crafting nostalgic feelings and thoughts. As life can be unpredictable\, I seek stability by recording familiar spaces to appreciate the time spent in them and with the people I care about. This prompts me to accept spaces for what they offer rather than staging a scene. Often\, I jump into painting without preparatory drawings because the subject changes as the environment moves through time. The paintings invite the audience to reflect on small things and moments that matter to them\, whether that be observing how the sun comes through the window during midday or a napping family pet.  \n\n\n\nMore About Grace  \n\n\n\nI am an observational oil painter interested in capturing fleeting moments in time. Many of my paintings render the progression of quotidian spaces across sessions\, capturing movement of objects\, people\, and light. I explore the sense of nostalgia in mundane spaces through rigorous rhythmic applications of mark and color. \n\n\n\nFollow Grace on Instagram @gracthomp \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: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:The last days of the news and record photo exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Last Days of the News and Record\n\n\n\nPhoto Exhibition by Mercer Bufter\n\n\n\n September 2 – 6\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, Sept 5th | 6-8P\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Last Days of the News and Record  \n\n\n\nI didn’t think much about the News and Record building until they started knocking it down. Then I got kind of obsessed. I photographed the building and site routinely\, mostly while I was doing other things. I used whatever camera and film I was carrying at the moment. In that way\, my photos of the News and Record are both intentional and careless\, considered and unplanned. All of the stories connected to that site are basically hidden from me. The photographs are simply visual explorations of what it’s like to wonder about a specific place many times over many months. In addition to the prints on the wall\, there are two volumes of photos for passers-by to browse. The News and Record site is a small plot and an inherent part of this work is the repetition of views and details as they changed over the months. The interior photos\, on the other hand\, cannot be updated since the destruction of the building was final. Those images\, and the hidden stories connected to them\, receded farther and farther into the past as the site was cleared of machinery\, cleared of rubble\, and filled in with grasses and weeds. They continue to recede\, I suppose\, as the geese enjoy the new little pond they’ve gained since the demolition of the News and Record. \n\n\n\nMore About Mercer  \n\n\n\nMercer Bufter is a poet and photographer in Greensboro\, N.C. His photos of Beef Burger were exhibited in Greensboro Project Space’s 2024 Community Arts Show and his series on the destruction of Henry Louis Smith Homes on Florida Street was shown at Hemphill Branch Library and Vance Chavis Branch Library\, both in 2024. He photographs people\, places\, and things wherever he goes. \n\n\n\nTo learn more follow Mercer on instagram @ mr._ez_pz \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:Mind's eye art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Mind’s Eye\n\n\n\nA journey from illness to healing: A neurodivergent perspective \n\n\n\nPainting Exhibition by Anne R. Laperriere\n\n\n\nSeptember 2 – 6\, 2025\n\n\n\n*Reception: Friday\, Sept 5th | 6-8P\n\n\n\n**Artist Talk: Saturday\, Sept 6th | 2:30-3:30P\n\n\n\n*live music by Rene El Jaguar\n\n\n\n**with Special guest Slam Poet Euridice L. White \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Mind’s Eye \n\n\n\nI had the courage to begin this series of autobiographical acrylic paintings in 2022. The series is made up of bold\, figurative works whose characters\, mostly self likenesses\, show states of mental health and illness I’ve grown into\, out of\, and lived with during my lifetime. The viewer is taken into scenes expressing feelings and events such as depression\, terror\, mania\, solitude\, and thriving experienced during a lifetime of neurodivergent existence. “Mind’s Eye” speaks about mental illness\, wellbeing\, and the transformation and healing of the human mind and spirit.  \n\n\n\nColors in the compositions are either confronting and contrasting\, or subdued\, foreboding and calm. The paint is layered\, creating an obsessive history and rich hue. Animal beings and symbolic images appear intermingled with the figures. Paleolithic and Neolithic pattern and sculpture and hints of ancient mysticism also appear\, plumbing the depths of the psyche and communicating in a primal language of emotion and notion.  Brushstrokes are broad and emotive or tiny and repetitive. A carefully considered\, bold composition of shapes and human/animal bodies is seen from afar\, while tedious detail work is enjoyed up close. \n\n\n\nMore About Anne  \n\n\n\nAnne Laperriere is a multi-disciplinary artist who grew up in and around Detroit\, Michigan. Here\, she spent her childhood lost in art making\, branching out to other activities such as dissecting deceased birds in the backyard\, melting plastic animals in the microwave\, and experimenting with her mother’s cosmetics.  \n\n\n\nHer lifelong obsession with art led her to earn a scholarship for study of sculpture at the Cleveland Institute of Art. She experienced working and interning in the field of museum taxidermy and exhibit creation at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History\, and the Smithsonian’s exhibits department. When bouts with undiagnosed bipolar disorder became challenging\, Anne relocated away from the harsh winters in Detroit and Cleveland to her current Winston Salem\, North Carolina. Here she worked for fifteen years in an operating room\, while creating a painting series of inspirations experienced on the job.  \n\n\n\nIn the present\, Anne is employed as a faux-finisher\, and in her basement studio  builds a series of paintings about her experiences through mental illness and wellbeing. She has turned to art making as a therapy\, an expression\, and a means of communication about her journey as a human being through existence.   \n\n\n\nLearn more about Anne by visiting her website here and following her in IG: @anne_ruth_laperriere \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:Cloudy Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cloudy\n\n\n\ndrawing and painting installation\n\n\n\nby Les III \n\n\n\nMay 27 – 31\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, May 30th | 6-8PM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Cloudy  \n\n\n\nI go for regular bicycle rides scanning the horizon and the road before me.  The ever-present sky always has something to show me — as does the roadway.  For over a year I have focused on daily sketch studies of clouds\, a practice of the fundamentals of artmaking as a way of welcoming a renewed concept of flow.  I meditate on how to represent the clouds with making marks on collected bits of paper.  The challenge is to use what is before me — foreign & familiar\, in a way new & known to share a way of upliftingly seeing through challenges inside and outside.  It is a Cloudy departure from my normal way of practice\, yet informs everything I do. \n\n\n\nThis project is funded in part by the 2025 Forsyth County Regional Artist Support Grant and the North Carolina Arts Council. \n\n\n\nMore about Les III \n\n\n\nLes Caison III is an award-winning NC homegrown visual artist.  He prefers mixed media layers of expressive realism\, often utilizing an illustrative\, narrative approach — fashioning quirky\, heartfelt tales among images of people\, places\, and things just waiting to connect with you time and again.  His creative can-do is often seen as drawings on found paper and paintings on panel.  They find their way into storied solo & group shows all over the southeastern U.S..  Peppered among his prolific 25+ year career are numerous curatorial stints\, art project manager posts\, residencies\, commissions\, and adventures too thick to mention.  Les is more.  His work has been exhibited in regional galleries including Asheville\, Greensboro\, and Raleigh; museums including the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center\, Turchin Center for Visual Arts in Boone\, and The Hickory Museum of Art; and is included in numerous private collections.  Les recently completed an impressive 11 quick study portrait project during his two-week Artist-In-Residency at GreenHill’s ArtQuest.  He currently represented by Winston-Salem’s Visual Index Gallery and can be found pedaling about on his bicycle under the clouds. \n\n\n\nTo learn more\, visit: www.LesIII.com or follow Les on Instagram @LesThreee  #LesIII \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: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\nMay Artists-in-Residence: Linda Boike\, Morgan Hesse\, Melanie McAllister\, Jalen Williams\n\n\n\nMay Cohort | May 12 – 24\, 2025\n\n\n\nPublic Open Studio Hours:\n\n\n\nMay 19th | 12-3p\n\n\n\nMay 21st | 2-5p\n\n\n\nMay 23rd | 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\nMay Cohort   \n\n\n\nLinda Boike (BA Printmaking and Drawing) intends to investigate her repeatable processes by setting up stations for herself that will serve to keep her busy. She wants to reap and sow. She has more recently been marrying her artistic process with her writing process\, which she would like to incorporate into the residency with hopes of involving other participating artists in doing pass around poems for basic idea generation. She also has a desire to expand on previous work themes and make more worms\, creatures\, and color/darkness poems. Spending time in one place will always cause accumulation. \n\n\n\nMelanie McAllister’s (BFA Painting) artistic practice is rooted in the sensual and tactile nature of oil painting\, which she uses as a means of catharsis and personal reflection. Primarily focused on figurative oil paintings\, she explores themes of vulnerability\, spirituality\, and the formative experiences that have shaped her identity. She aims to create a visual language that reaches beyond her individual experience and resonates with those who view it. She intends to experiment with different paint application methods and processes to help push her approach to these thematic elements and push her work to larger scales. \n\n\n\nJalen Williams (BFA Printmaking and Drawing) plans to explore alternative forms of printmaking and drawing practices. This includes methods such as monoprinting\, gelli plate printing\, and kitchen lithography. He wants to investigate what are the most portable and easily accessible ways of doing printmaking practices on the go. When viewing most printmaking techniques\, most require a sum of items and accessible studio space\, such as press machines\, various chemicals\, and tools. With the residency\, he will propose ways both himself and others can explore the world of printmaking on a smaller scale with more accessibility. \n\n\n\nMorgan Hesse (BFA Photography) plans to deepen her exploration into experimental alternative photographic processes\, building upon previous work with cyanotypes. Her goal is to venture into new territories by experimenting with lumens\, anthotypes\, and other unconventional techniques. The intended project will culminate in a series of unique images\, each capturing the dynamic interplay between light\, chemicals\, and natural materials. A central component of her plan involves constructing a custom UV light box. This tool will allow her to control exposure precisely while experimenting with various materials such as water\, dirt\, salt\, and other substances directly on the surfaces.
