SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: Who I was\, who we are
DESCRIPTION:Who I was\, who we are will feature the latest work from Yvette L. Cummings in the Milliken Art Gallery. Cummings’s work explores the complicated path of youth\, beauty and femininity as expressed through the viewpoint of a sexual abuse survivor. “I am interested in the way female bodies are not autonomous; whether the victim of sexual assault or the governments constant regulation\, ownership of my body is not my own. I want to exert power back to the body\, regardless of gesture or appearance\,” states Cummings. Her paintings will challenge the viewer to move beyond adult experiences and remember the innocence of children. \nImage: Mother Don’t Worry | Oil on Canvas | 60 x 60″\nCummings is currently an Assistant Professor of Visual Arts in Painting/Drawing at Coastal Carolina University in Conway\, South Carolina. She received her Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Cincinnati’s School of Design\, Art\, Architecture\, and Planning. Her work can be found in both public and private collections and has been exhibited in multiple group and solo exhibitions throughout the south and mid-west of the United States as well as internationally. Cummings has been featured in the 701 Center for Contemporary Art South Carolina Biennial 2015 and 2019 in Columbia\, SC\, winner of the 2016 701 CCA Prize for artist under 40 in South Carolina\, as well as Contemporary South at Visual Art Exchange in Raleigh\, NC. She was one of 65 artists chosen for The Mint Museum’s Coined in the South Exhibition 2019. In 2020\, Cummings was shortlisted for the international Mother Art Prize and in 2021 awarded Honorable Mention for the Women’s Art Prize exhibition. \nWho I was\, who we are will run from September 29-October 20\, 2022. Cummings will present a Gallery Talk on September 29th at 6:00pm in the gallery followed by a reception from 6:30-8:00pm. \nThe exhibition is located in the Milliken Art Gallery and is free of charge. Gallery hours are Sunday 2:00-5:00pm\, Monday – Friday 9:00am-5:00pm. The Gallery is closed during school holidays. \nClick here for gallery talk and reception details.

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: Future Nature / Content Aware
DESCRIPTION:Image: Untitled from the Future Nature / Content Aware Series Archival inkjet prints on Japanese paper 17″ x 69″\nFuture Nature / Content Aware will feature the latest work from photographer Aspen Hochhalter in the Milliken Art Gallery. This series explores how computers\, and specifically the Photoshop content-aware algorithm\, interprets and reconstructs partial panoramic photographs to give us a glimpse into a digital “vision.” “These photographs were intentionally taken in such a way to emphasize and exaggerate digital artifacts. In addition\, large sections of the panoramics were blank and the computer was tasked to fill in the missing information with its approximation of “nature.” The resulting images are composite landscapes of digital fragmentation\, disruption\, pattern glitches\, and digital imperfections created by the computer in attempts to reconstruct the missing content.\,” states Hochhalter. The images are “documents of hybrid seeing–a collaborative vision of nature through the photographic lens\, with a human at the helm and a computer algorithm completing the picture.” \nAspen Hochhalter was born and raised in Chipita Park\, Colorado. She received her Masters of Fine Arts in Photo Based Media at East Carolina University in Greenville\, North Carolina and her BFA in Photography from Creighton University in Omaha\, Nebraska. She is an Associate Professor of Art and the Photography Area Coordinator in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of North Carolina\, Charlotte. Her work explores the crossover between digital technologies\, historic processes and the use of experimental materials through appropriation\, self-portraiture\, and collaborative projects. Recent accomplishments include work published in The Book of Alternative Photographic Processes: 3rd Edition\, Focal Plane Magazine\, and Lenscratch Blog; a McColl Center for Art + Innovation Residency\, exhibits at Castell Photography Gallery\, East Carolina University\, Kiernan Gallery\, The Light Factory\, and many other venues across the country. \nFuture Nature / Content Aware will run from October 27-November 22\, 2022. Hochhalter will present a Gallery Talk on October 27th at 6:00pm in the gallery followed by a reception from 6:30-8:00pm. \nThe exhibition is located in the Milliken Art Gallery and is free of charge. Gallery hours are Sunday 2:00-5:00pm\, Monday – Friday 9:00am-5:00pm. The Gallery is closed during school holidays. \nArtist’s Website \nClick here for gallery talk and reception details.

SUMMARY:MoseleyNext: Rakish
DESCRIPTION:Violinist Maura Shawn Scanlin and guitarist Conor Hearn unite to form “Rakish.” The pair gets their namesake from the traditional Irish tune Rakish Paddy\, an origin that aptly suits the duo and their shared background in traditional Irish and Scottish music. Yet “rakish” itself also suggests something strikingly unconventional in its appearance\, and Maura and Conor knowingly embrace this wealth of connotation in their music\, drawing on the music they grew up with and performing it with their own slant. In a performance that toes the line between concert music and session music\, Rakish explores tunes and songs from Irish and American folk traditions in a way that reflects their shared interest in and love for old traditional tunes and chamber music. Maura Shawn\, a two-time U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion and a winner of the Glenfiddich Fiddle Competition\, wields the technical range of an accomplished classical violinist and the deep sensitivity of a traditional musician. Conor\, a native to the Irish music communities of Washington\, D.C. and Baltimore\, MD\, makes his home in Boston\, MA playing and teaching guitar. As a duo they have performed on Front Row Boston\, Brian O’Donovan’s “A Christmas Celtic Sojourn\,” the Burren Backroom Series\, and can be heard on broadcasts of GBH’s “A Celtic Sojourn.” \nOur new MoseleyNext micro-series welcomes audience members looking to kick off the weekend with shorter\, happy hour-style concerts on Friday evenings. Just like our traditional Moseley series\, these new events will feature top-notch performances by world-class artists including Irish duo Rakish and innovative hybrid arts ensemble The Fourth Wall. Featuring a casual setting and earlier start time\, this appealing combo of artistry and convenience is sure to make MoseleyNext a new favorite of young professionals\, families\, and connoisseurs alike! \nGeneral Admission Single Ticket: $25\nYouth Under 22 Single Ticket: $15\nConverse Students\, Faculty\, & Staff: Contact the Box Office \nKindly note this event’s COVID protocols: Optional masking. \nFree\, pre-concert happy hour begins at 5:30 PM\, and doors open at 6:00 PM for general seating. The concert will begin at 6:30 PM.
