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: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: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: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:Asheville Artists Benefit Show
DESCRIPTION:Asheville Artists Benefit Show\n\n\n\nOrganized by Asheville-based Artist\, Margee Halsch\n\n\n\nDecember 10 – 14\, 2024\n\n\n\n Reception: Friday\, December 13th | 6-8P\n\n\n\nAdditional Workshops open to public participation\, allows attendees to engage with affected artists and support their work directly.\n\n\n\nFriday and Saturday\, December 13th + 14th\, 2-4pm\n\n\n\nTry your hand at working with encaustics. Dee Santorini will be teaching two mini encaustic classes where you will learn encaustic techniques\, and be able to create a piece of art that you can take home! Blend hot beeswax with pigment\, and create your masterpiece! Cost of class is $45\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space is pleased to announce a fundraising event in support of Western North Carolina (WNC) artists devastated by Hurricane Helene\, organized by Asheville-based artist Margee Halsch.  \n\n\n\nThis exhibition will show works in a variety of mediums from nine WNC artists displaced by Hurricane Helene. The hurricane and flood waters from the French Broad River have decimated the historic River Arts District in Asheville\, leaving hundreds of artists without inventory\, studios\, and gallery spaces. \n\n\n\n“To be able to support our fellow Asheville art community in this way is reflective of what’s at the heart of GPS – supporting artists through community and humanity.

SUMMARY:The Death Show: An art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Death Show\n\n\n\n Featuring Paige Cox\, Leanne Pizio\, and Peter Schroth\n\n\n\nOctober 22 – November 2\, 2024\n\n\n\nReception: November 1st\, 2024 | 6-8P\n\n\n\nMore About The Death Show \n\n\n\nThe sneaky thing about life is that it includes and requires death. \n\n\n\nAs adults\, usually not a day goes by without a thought or two about an impending end. And as we get older and our loved ones start crossing over to the other side\, we find ourselves dealing with death and all the bells and whistles that go along with that incredibly massive topic.  It is an experience that awaits us all.We invite you to come see how three Greensboro artists interpret DEATH.  Please join us and come share your stories that might help all of us relate to one another in this big fragile world we call Life. \n\n\n\nMore About the Artists \n\n\n\nPaige CoxAs a fiber artist\, I love to play with color and texture. It has always been a passion of mine to incorporate humor into my work as well. I have worked as a textile artist my whole life experimenting with weaving\, tapestry\, embroidery\, felting and now tufting. I enjoy manipulating materials\, incorporating reused items\, and everyday objects in my pieces. My hope is that my creations make a space brighter and lighter. \n\n\n\nFollow on IG:@paigecox_art \n\n\n\nLeanne PizioIf you can imagine a thing\, no matter how big or small\, you can make it out of clay. Clay is a living medium\, one that can be seduced into anything the heart desires and that makes working in clay not only fascinating but also challenging. \n\n\n\nWhen approaching the work\, my mind tends to see things in a series. I like to build multiple sculptures that pile together to make another vision. \n\n\n\nFollow on IG:@leannepiziosartPeter SchrothWhen we cut away all the excess\, block out all the distractions\, sort the clutter\, turn off all the noise…when we boil it down to a single fundamental unit\, what are we left with? What actually matters?LOVE.My work is about love\, but it’s also about the lack of love.  It’s about the want and the need of love.  The acceptance and rejection of love.  The beauty and the ugliness.  The laughter and the tears.  Everything\, all the time…it’s all fueled by Love.And then there is Death. \n\n\n\nFollow on IG: @peterschrothart \n\n\n\nLearn more: www.PeterEric.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

These large format prints require a community to make it all happen! \n\n\n\nRelief printing is a process where the carved areas of a woodblock become negative space and the remaining ‘raised’ areas are inked and printed onto paper or fabric – it is the oldest method in printmaking.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nContributing Artists\n\n\n\nTopher Alexander \n\n\n\nChristopher Thomas \n\n\n\nDerek Toomes \n\n\n\n Ben Billingsley (Cape Fear Community College) \n\n\n\nAnnabelle Puttbach (Cape Fear Community College) \n\n\n\nRowan Cabarrus Community College \n\n\n\n& UNCG “Print 2” Students (Spring 2024): \n\n\n\nAmya Harrison \n\n\n\nBrandon Cureton \n\n\n\nLucio Palmer \n\n\n\nChloe Jeffers \n\n\n\nCynthia Pena Galdamez \n\n\n\nEmily Ferrell \n\n\n\nGuila Evangelista \n\n\n\nHayden Robinson \n\n\n\nJenni Garcia \n\n\n\nKaylynn Koontz \n\n\n\nLaura Hernandez \n\n\n\nMadison Miller \n\n\n\nMarie McGuffey \n\n\n\nMargo Ha \n\n\n\nPeyton Rollins \n\n\n\nConstantine Schuster \n\n\n\nSupreet Kaur \n\n\n\nZaria Watson-Bousfield \n\n\n\nAdia Carter \n\n\n\nAlexis Vang \n\n\n\nAmiah Jones \n\n\n\nJudith Briand \n\n\n\nLaiba Siddique \n\n\n\nLuz Borrayo \n\n\n\nMay Aye \n\n\n\nSofia Aguilar \n\n\n\nTrinity Donnelly \n\n\n\nZaire Miles-Moultrie \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday – Thursday\, 12 -5 PM \n\n\n\nFriday\, 12-8PM \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-8PM

SUMMARY:Reversal\, reinterpretation\, reinvention art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Reversal\, Reinterpretation\, Reinvention\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Amiah Jones\n\n\n\nAugust 20 – 24\, 2024\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, August 23rd | 6-8PM\n\n\n\nMore About Reversal\, Reinterpretation\, Reinvention  \n\n\n\nReversal\, Reinterpretation\, Reinvention is a series of works that stem from a liminal space. This space is filled with the constructs we build between facing our pain and healing ourselves. These paintings\, drawings\, and prints are parts of me that have healed.  \n\n\n\nAs a biracial woman in the LGBTQ+ community\, my space is oftentimes dark\, much like the palette in many of my works. This place is bombarded with repeated instances of systematic oppression fueled by racism\, sexism\, homophobia\, and capitalism. From turning to history in order to understand such indoctrination\, to rethinking and reshaping how to see the world clearly\, these three objectives have helped me continue to see humanity with hope. I wish for a world where everyone’s truths are accepted with the care we only save for ourselves. After all\, the light that saves us is not shined upon us\, but embedded within the choices we make together.  \n\n\n\n“The quality of light by which we scrutinize our lives has direct bearing upon the product which we live\, and upon the changes which we hope to bring about through those lives. It is within this light that we form those ideas by which we pursue our magic and make it realized.”- Audrey Lorde \n\n\n\nMore About Amiah  \n\n\n\nAmiah Jones (b. 1999) is a Filipino-African American painter and printmaker based in Thomasville\, North Carolina. Using the human figure\, pattern\, reflection\, geometry\, and a limited palette\, her work embodies the layered richness of our fractured\, but retranslated history. Born to a Filipino mother and an African American father who grew up during the civil rights movement\, Jones’ experience in the Southern U.S. has shaped her passion for human rights and the visual arts. Her work has ignited her efforts to bridge the gaps between what makes empathy so vital today; unconditional love and fear of the misunderstood.  \n\n\n\n“Going to school in a rural town while having black inner city friends forced me to serve as a bridge\, constantly reminding my friends of the resilience and education of our ancestors\, while fighting to uncover the same truths to peers and teachers at school. I would come up with metaphors\, sometimes making people laugh just to get the attention off of the sudden discomfort I was reciprocating. My work now serves as that uncomfortable\, ironically playful but heartbreaking bridge.  \n\n\n\nWe live in a society where making space to exist freely\, for many\, is automatically seen as political. While this experience holds true\, beauty\, humor\, and familiarity provide a gateway – a gateway for people to accept a complexity that’s historically misunderstood\, historically unwanted. It’s incredibly difficult to find your own gateway\, your own visual language\, but my obsessions with play\, conflation\, and abstraction have allowed me to negotiate for my acceptance\, negotiate for change\, negotiate for love. I’ve been rooting for an ongoing connection with my blackness that’s richer than the quick anger\, cry\, absolve\, and I embrace that connection the most through the arts. Through oil painting and printmaking\, I grasp at the dimming sparks of goodness that fall within the crevices of what we call humanity. The little acts of kindness\, the subtle jokes we make in pain\, and the sparks of love that go unnoticed through the dark.”  \n\n\n\nJones is currently residing in Thomasville\, NC. She received her BFA in painting at the University of North Carolina Greensboro in May of 2024. \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:Summer Studios: Arts on Site! | Art Student Residency Open Studios
DESCRIPTION:Summer Studios: Arts on Site! \n\n\n\nThe Greensboro Project Space Art Student Residency Program \n\n\n\nAugust Cohort in Residence: August 5 – 17\, 2024 \n\n\n\nOpen Public Studios Hours: \n\n\n\nAugust 12th | 12-3p \n\n\n\nAugust 14th | 12-5p \n\n\n\nAugust 16th | 6-8p \n\n\n\nGPS is pleased to present the 2nd annual student residency program\, Summer Studios: Arts on Site! This residency will assist in educating students that the gallery 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\nThis student opportunity was made possible by our Founding Sponsor\, Maggie Triplette \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAugust Cohort \n\n\n\nConstantine Sotos (BFA Printmaking and Drawing) plans to use several mediums\, such as charcoal\, ink\, metal\, linoleum\, and photographs to explore his experience of living and growing up in Lumberton\, NC. Lumberton has always been the city that his mind wanders to and he plans to assemble a space as a tribute to this place which\, out of pure luck\, he has since moved from. There will be several pieces of debris from Lumberton placed around the space to bring any viewer into a different environment/state of mind. Prior to the two weeks at GPS\, he will record the people and places of Lumberton\, as well as gather materials from around the town. \n\n\n\nLaura Herandez (BFA Painting) intends to investigate the relationships between familial connections that people could possibly have that are heavily focused on Hispanic/Latino backgrounds through painting. This research will be conducted by comparing multiple experiences from different perspectives and delving on how these links might be based on other outside hardships that individuals could go through that can cause these relationships to transpire. This subjected would be incorporated through works in symbolic visuals or icons that will be deliberately ambiguous at the surface. Research will span from documentaries\, social media\, other’s experiences\, and so on. \n\n\n\nMelissa Ferguson (BFA Sculpture and Ceramics) will continue an exploration of movement and sound in conjunction with viewer interaction. She plans to experiment with different materials (wood\, metal\, and found objects) at a large scale and envision a room in which movement through will create a variety of noises. Using an armature to secure and hang items of varying materials and sizes at different lengths\, floor fans will also be used to activate the space when no one is in it. \n\n\n\nChloe Rush (BFA Drawing) will investigate how two portraits set in her inventive universe are in conversation with one another\, which draw upon her research interests. She draws black people in an Afro-futuristic Southern universe that she invented\, by using drawing mediums to explore the complexity of the multitudes of black identity in the South. Through these images she examines what defines “normal” in the context of growing up between two different classes in the South while challenging the logic of limiting stereotypes that pertain to black bodies to build new truths outside of the dominant narrative. She plans to experiment with defining what is considered “not normal” in the black south and shine a light on these “abnormalities.”

SUMMARY:Through My Mother’s Eyes Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Through My Mother’s Eyes\nSolo Exhibition by Judith Katherine Briand\n\nJanuary 23 – 27\, 2024\nReception: Friday\, January 26th | 6-8P\nThrough My Mother’s Eyes is an installation project created from the archival objects\, photographs\, and histories of my Mother’s family. While offering a visual\, narrative experience highlighting real-life circumstances\, the viewer is met with an audible conversation between mother and daughter\, discussing life\, loss\, and the complex nature of memory. This installation succeeds my artist book ‘Abuela: An Album of Memory and Identity Through Photo/Graphics’ as part of a series titled ‘Seeking Roots’. What originated as an investigation into my Mexican heritage as a way to connect to the ancestral roots of my foremothers\, the series of works quickly started to form a direction of its own\, equally becoming an exploration of the meaning of generational storytelling\, how identities and cultures form through stories and the ability for a photograph or heirloom to hold and bequeath memories to its possessor. \nThe creative space at the intersection of physical material and digital formats enables me to construct and reconstruct narratives\, histories\, and mythologies while considering the phenomenon of memory. Digital manipulation reveals how memories mirror through generations like reflection across the water and provides a way to communicate how identities are formed by way of the stories we tell ourselves or are told by others. The photographic medium affords us records that would otherwise be lost to time but the lens itself is unaware of the generational patterns that manifest both in life and in image. My observations expose the generational patterns of a specific middle-class Mexican American family\, my own. A family who has lost their connection to their Mexican lands\, kin\, heritage\, and traditions. My objective is to engage with what it means to understand yourself through generational inheritance and what it can mean to lose the privilege of knowing. Although the material is documentary and archival\, and the presentation is biographical\, I am not unique in my attempt to find my place in and outside of my heritage. The allegorical representation throughout this personal narrative speaks of something greater and more universal than itself. \n\nMore About Judith Katherine Briand  \nJudith K. Briand (she/her) is a Designer native to Maine\, based in Winston Salem\, and completing her BFA at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a concentration in New Media and Design. She is an interdisciplinary artist working across the boundaries of physical and digital spaces. Her practice is rooted in preservation and identity\, currently exploring her family’s experience of loss\, and finding identity through generational storytelling. Her process derives from personal experiences to create work reflecting and refracting subjective realities. Her ethos focuses on inserting individual or marginalized perspectives into narratives traditionally or historically ignored or erased\, aiming to acknowledge and question contemporary social and political landscapes\, and reconsidering truth through art. \n\n\nTo learn more\, visit our website here \nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \nTuesday\, 1-6pm \nWednesday\, 10a-3pm \nThursday\, 1-6pm \nFriday\, 12-5pm \nSaturday\, 2-5pm

SUMMARY:Fabric to Flora Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Fabric to Flora\nWorks by Taylor Allison\n\nJanuary 9 – 20\, 2024\nReception: Friday\, January 12th | 6-8P\n  \nI am a textile visual artist and creative place maker\, highly invested in creating \ncommunity\, reimagining place\, practicing permaculture\, and making accessible spaces. To connect with the public\, I observe the local landscape and study native flora. Then I get to work\, creating quilts\, soft sculptures\, and interactive installations. Stitching together my personal fascination with fabric and my intention to bring people together\, I create stand alone pieces and also soft sculpture installations. This combines my desire to show the broad scope of possibilities that fabric can have\, and also create opportunities for us to radically connect with each other\, myself (the artist)\, and the earth. \nQuestions I am asking throughout my practice are: \nHow can we approach art? \nCan we connect with art and each other directly\, without judgment\, full of curiosity and play? \nCan we experience joy with gratitude\, play with contemplation\, and introspection with the mundane? \nCan we learn about the earth\, in a way that is transformative\, grounding\, and fun? \nCan we reimagine plants? \nCan plants that once appeared as inanimate objects and easy to overlook transform into living beings that can change our way of viewing the world at large? \nHow can fabric be transformed\, highlighted\, or used as a tool for touch? \nConsidering these questions and creating opportunities for these experiences are a way to make art sustainable both personally and publicly.

SUMMARY:Community Mood Project Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Community Mood Project \nSolo Exhibition by Rae Cozart\n\nNovember 14 – 18\, 2023\n  \n  \nI like to explore escapism in my installations\, making an alternative space of being for my mind. At 20 years old I began using art to explore my experiences with neurodivergence. By sharing a peek into my experiences\, I am advocating for myself and my community. \nThe RX Garden and Community Mood Blanket are community-based projects. After a session with my therapist at the time\, I realized I was on auto-pilot when responding after she asked me “How are you?” I would reply “Good” even if I wasn’t. I’ve noticed how societally “How are you?” is more like a call and response than an active question. This inspired the Community Mood Blanket. My first therapist introduced me to Gloria Wilcox’s feelings wheel to help me name my feelings. I made an anonymous form with the Feelings Wheel for people to use whenever they need it. I used yarn corresponding to the colors on the wheel and each response is a color row added to the blanket. The lifesize plush and video edit were born and developed through journal entry sketches\, and images I received while imagining a place I wanted to escape to. \n  \nTo learn more\, visit our website here \nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \nTuesday\, Thursday – Friday\, 12 -5 PM \nWednesday\, 2-7 PM \nSaturday\, 2-5PM

SUMMARY:Care and Custody Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Care and Custody: Past Responses to Mental Health \nThe National Library of Medical Exhibition\nCurated by Anne Parsons\nNovember 7 – 18\, 2023\n  \n  \nCare and Custody is a traveling banner exhibition and companion website that explores the treatment of people with mental health conditions throughout history\, especially in the United States\, bringing to light the tension that has existed between care and custody. Physicians\, advocates\, families\, and government agencies have all contributed to the shaping of mental health policies. Care and Custody examines this history to understand how the country has moved away from custodial forms of treatment\, toward more inclusive approaches\, and worked to protect the rights of people with mental health conditions. \nCare and Custody includes an education component featuring a new university module and a digital gallery that further explores selected works from the historical collections of the NLM\, which are also available in their entirety in NLM Digital Collections. \nThe National Library of Medicine produced Care and Custody: Past Responses to Mental Health. The guest curator was public historian and educator Anne E. Parsons\, PhD (UNC at Greensboro)\, who published the book From Asylum to Prison: Deinstitutionalization and the Rise of Mass Incarceration. \n  \nTo learn more\, visit our website here \nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \nTuesday\, Thursday – Friday\, 12 -5 PM \nWednesday\, 2-7 PM \nSaturday\, 2-5PM
