From the kitchen of: UNCG’s 2024 MFA Cohort May 30 – June 3, 2023Reception: Friday, June 2nd | 6-8P “The Perfect Casserole” is the culmination of a semester-long inquiry into identity and portraiture by UNCG’s 2024 MFA cohort. Artists Erin Fei, Karrington Gardner, Jason Lord, Sam Machia Keshet, and Daniel Ramirez-Lamos met with a rotation of UNCG faculty for rigorous conversation, readings, and critique in an attempt to understand their respective interests in identity. This show, as a result, is their attempt to do the impossible task of pinning down identity, like trying to make the perfect casserole. MORE INFO

Art Trash: A Mini ResidencyGrace ClarkJune 19 – 23, 2023Public Open Studio Hours:Wednesday, June 21st | 1-3PThursday, June 22nd | 1-3PFriday, June 23rd | 1-3PI will be working on a series that will utilize trash taken from museum settings (primarily MASS MoCA) as material to recreate art installation scenes from my time working as an art fabricator/installer. Many of these scenes are fleeting moments throughout the installation and maintenance team’s everyday work, where tools and supplies lay in space in a way that makes me immediately think of it as minimalist, abstract sculpture. The arrangements aren’t meant to be art, but the people behind them are true craftsmen, many with their own creative practices as well. I wonder if by recreating these scenes and calling them art, we may be able to more adequately elevate the work of those that are so necessary for exhibitions to exist, but so often go unseen. More About Grace Grace Clark is a visual and social practice artist whose work is centered in a deeply diaristic narrative of metabolizing love, loss, and labor. She reflects upon these themes within her experiences as a museum worker, educator, mediator, patient, and daughter to contemplate ways of living, feeling, and wishful thinking. Sculptural, text, and photographic media, often including found and natural objects, play fundamental roles in her practice as she navigates and interprets a variety of landscapes––attempting to organize a spiritual space within the natural, question the cultural, and map her own interior. www.graceclarkart.com or follow on IG: @graceannclark   To learn more about the artist, visit our website here   Greensboro Project Space Weekly Hours for June 21-23: Wednesday, June 21st | 1-3PThursday, June 22nd | 1-3PFriday, June 23rd | 1-3P
