By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Since 2022, SI has undertaken a comprehensive process of examining its carbon emissions, energy use, travel, transportation, waste, materials and other aspects of institutional practice, with the goal of moving beyond isolated \u201cgreen\u201d initiatives toward a broader transformation of how an arts organization operates. Hessler will reflect on how this process has informed SI\u2019s curatorial thinking, including \u201c\u003Cspan\u003ESpora,\u201d an open-ended initiative that invited artists to intervene in the institution\u2019s architecture, infrastructures and working processes, and \u201cEnergies,\u201d an East Village-wide exhibition that addressed ecological affordances and effects, social formations and political arrangements attached to energy past and present. Rather than treating sustainability as a fixed set of solutions, SI approaches climate action as a collaborative process of learning, experimentation and institutional change. This includes rethinking exhibition materials and production, transportation and shipping, travel, reuse, partnerships and relationships with local communities. Drawing on SI\u2019s experiences, Hessler will consider how museums and arts organizations might redefine institutional success, collaboration, growth and progress in an era of ecological urgency.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch5\u003ESpeaker Biography\u003C\/h5\u003E\u003Cp\u003EStefanie Hessler is a curator, writer, editor and the Director of Swiss Institute (SI) in New York.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma. Participating artists engaged with fields such as entomology, gender theory, disability studies and new media to develop work that is both academically rigorous and emotionally resonant.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EParticipating artists: Rozano Rivolta, Juno Pfieff, Daniel Decamps, V Stolarski, Avery Collins, Claire Chilton, Sonora Grace Wright, Grace Balzer, Kieren Lund, Mick Burrage\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EImage: \u201cLove Bugs,\u201d Juno Lee, Acrylic on Paper, 14\u0027 x 17\u0027\u003C\/span\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","phone":"","contactname":"Veronica Potter","email":"vgpotter@asu.edu","delta":"11","alias":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/anatomy-swarm?id=11","ticketing_rsvp_txt":"","ticketing_rsvp_txt2":"","ticketing_rsvp_url":"","ticketing_rsvp_url2":"","website":"","image_url":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-09\/Anatomy%20ASU%20Event.png","image_alt":"","image_title":"","start_date":"Oct 29 2026 - 5:00pm","end_date":"Oct 29 2026 - 9:00pm","time_description":"Gallery Hours\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMon\u2013Thurs | 9 a.m.\u20135 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFri | 9 a.m.\u20133 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nClosed on weekends and university holidays","very_start_date":"2026-10-29T17:00:00Z","very_end_date":"2026-10-29T21:00:00Z","event_types":"Exhibit, Exhibition, Misc events","interests":"Arts and Creative Expression|Events|Exhibition","audiences":"For current ASU students|For staff|For faculty|For the community","event_units":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts|School of Art|School of Art - Harry Wood Gallery","event_topics":"Arts and entertainment|Free|Open to the public","download":"\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-09\/Anatomy%20Exhibtion%20Flyer.png","event_map_url":"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/FGppU84Yarq1bhvVA","event_map_title":"","event_video":"","location_term":"Tempe campus","venue_address":"900 S Forest Mall","venue_city":"Tempe","venue_state":"AZ","venue_zip":"85281","alias-indexed":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/anatomy-swarm?id=11","sport_tag":"","game_type":"","subtitle":"","season":"","athletic_conference":"","tv_network":"","radio_station":"","wear_color":"","game_theme":"","history":"","history_text":"","related_stories":"","related_stories_text":"","game_notes":"","game_notes_text":"","recap_link":"","recap_link_text":"","live_stats":"","live_stats_text":"","game_time_tba":"No","sda_all_day":"No","opponent_logo":"","related_videos":"","related_videos_text":"","recurring":"yes"}},{"node":{"nid":"86651","title":"Thinking with Art: Work from the Collections of ASU English","campus":"Tempe campus","locations":"Ross-Blakley Hall 196","college_unit":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, Humanities, Humanities at ASU, School of Art, Division of Humanities, Humanities Institute - Art Exhibitions","department":"","field_cost_value":"Free","event_price_level":"Free","asu_events_price_desc":"Free","body_summary":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Thinking with Art\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekend\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","full_body":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Thinking with Art\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekends, university holidays and during private meetings.\u0026nbsp;See a representative at the front desk or the Humanities Institute for assistance.\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EWhat art do you live with?

As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma. Participating artists engaged with fields such as entomology, gender theory, disability studies and new media to develop work that is both academically rigorous and emotionally resonant.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EParticipating artists: Rozano Rivolta, Juno Pfieff, Daniel Decamps, V Stolarski, Avery Collins, Claire Chilton, Sonora Grace Wright, Grace Balzer, Kieren Lund, Mick Burrage\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EImage: \u201cLove Bugs,\u201d Juno Lee, Acrylic on Paper, 14\u0027 x 17\u0027\u003C\/span\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","phone":"","contactname":"Veronica Potter","email":"vgpotter@asu.edu","delta":"12","alias":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/anatomy-swarm?id=12","ticketing_rsvp_txt":"","ticketing_rsvp_txt2":"","ticketing_rsvp_url":"","ticketing_rsvp_url2":"","website":"","image_url":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-09\/Anatomy%20ASU%20Event.png","image_alt":"","image_title":"","start_date":"Oct 30 2026 - 5:00pm","end_date":"Oct 30 2026 - 9:00pm","time_description":"Gallery Hours\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMon\u2013Thurs | 9 a.m.\u20135 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFri | 9 a.m.\u20133 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nClosed on weekends and university holidays","very_start_date":"2026-10-30T17:00:00Z","very_end_date":"2026-10-30T21:00:00Z","event_types":"Exhibit, Exhibition, Misc events","interests":"Arts and Creative Expression|Events|Exhibition","audiences":"For current ASU students|For staff|For faculty|For the community","event_units":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts|School of Art|School of Art - Harry Wood Gallery","event_topics":"Arts and entertainment|Free|Open to the public","download":"\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-09\/Anatomy%20Exhibtion%20Flyer.png","event_map_url":"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/FGppU84Yarq1bhvVA","event_map_title":"","event_video":"","location_term":"Tempe campus","venue_address":"900 S Forest Mall","venue_city":"Tempe","venue_state":"AZ","venue_zip":"85281","alias-indexed":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/anatomy-swarm?id=12","sport_tag":"","game_type":"","subtitle":"","season":"","athletic_conference":"","tv_network":"","radio_station":"","wear_color":"","game_theme":"","history":"","history_text":"","related_stories":"","related_stories_text":"","game_notes":"","game_notes_text":"","recap_link":"","recap_link_text":"","live_stats":"","live_stats_text":"","game_time_tba":"No","sda_all_day":"No","opponent_logo":"","related_videos":"","related_videos_text":"","recurring":"yes"}},{"node":{"nid":"85071","title":"The Revolutionary Idea: A Window on Voting in America","campus":"Downtown Phoenix campus","locations":"Northlight Gallery","college_unit":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, School of Art, School of Art - Northlight Gallery","department":"School of Art","field_cost_value":"Free","event_price_level":"Free","asu_events_price_desc":"Free","body_summary":"\u003Cdiv class=\u0022uds-highlighted-heading\u0022\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highlight-gold\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EThe Revolutionary Idea: \u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E","full_body":"\u003Cdiv class=\u0022uds-highlighted-heading\u0022\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highlight-gold\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EThe Revolutionary Idea: a window on voting in America\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EOct 16\u2013Nov 14 | Northlight Gallery\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EOpening reception | Oct 16 | 6\u20139 p.m.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EInspired by Frederick Douglass\u2019s 1852 speech, \u201cWhat to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?,\u201d The Revolutionary Idea brings together the work of Anna Rotty and Greg Miller, two photographers who independently turned their attention to the people and spaces that make elections possible.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Coming to Harry Wood Gallery, \u201cThe Anatomy of a Swarm\u201d explores preconceived notions about sexuality, gender and embodiment through the lens of the insect world. By decentering the human perspective and embracing arthropods, creatures known for their alien anatomies, social structures and reproduction, the show reframes taboo topics like STIs, queerness, sexual trauma and asexuality within symbolic and scientific frameworks. This approach allows artists to explore the sexual experience through perspectives that merge biology, identity, humor and trauma.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art. With a previous background in ecology and biology, their work arises out of the mythologies and hypotheses of the scientific world, exploring sites of tension or incoherence.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELily Regalia (she\/her)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is a painter born in Saint Paul, Minnesota and based in Phoenix, Arizona.

Having grown up in a family that renovates houses, there is a continued fascination with observing their interiors and how people within inhabit the in-between.

Used for carrying, storing, protecting and discarding, bags are often temporary objects that move through our lives without much attention. Thurgood recreates these familiar forms in ceramic and textile, using surface embellishment, exaggerated scale and bright colors to give them a new presence. The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges. By spending significant time and labor transforming disposable objects into enduring sculptures, Thurgood shifts their place in our lives from something easily overlooked to something that can be examined and valued.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u201c(Un) Noticed\u201d asks viewers to pause and reconsider the ordinary objects that surround them, and to reflect on what they carry, why they carry it and how these objects can reveal something about the ways we live and interact with one another.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EImage: \u201cSeasonal Affection\u201d | Porcelain, stoneware, mason stains, gold | 17\u0022 x 12\u0022 x 21\u0022 (Left), 15\u0022 x 12\u0022 x 20.5\u0022 (Right)\u003C\/span\u003E | 2026\u003C\/p\u003E","phone":"","contactname":"Allie Thurgood","email":"athurgoo@asu.edu","delta":"0","alias":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/un-noticed-ma-thesis-exhibition?id=0","ticketing_rsvp_txt":"","ticketing_rsvp_txt2":"","ticketing_rsvp_url":"","ticketing_rsvp_url2":"","website":"","image_url":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-10\/Allie%20small.png","image_alt":"","image_title":"","start_date":"Nov 9 2026 - 9:00am","end_date":"Nov 9 2026 - 5:00pm","time_description":"Galery Hours\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMon\u2013Thurs | 9 a.m.\u20135 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFri | 9 a.m.\u20133 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nClosed on weekends and university holidays","very_start_date":"2026-11-09T09:00:00Z","very_end_date":"2026-11-09T17:00:00Z","event_types":"Exhibit, Exhibition, Misc events","interests":"Arts and Creative Expression|Events|Exhibition","audiences":"For current ASU students|For staff|For faculty|For the community","event_units":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts|School of Art|School of Art - Harry Wood Gallery","event_topics":"Arts and entertainment|Free|Open to the public","download":"\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-10\/Allie%20Flyer%20small.png","event_map_url":"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/FGppU84Yarq1bhvVA","event_map_title":"","event_video":"","location_term":"Tempe campus","venue_address":"900 S Forest Mall","venue_city":"Tempe","venue_state":"AZ","venue_zip":"85281","alias-indexed":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/un-noticed-ma-thesis-exhibition?id=0","sport_tag":"","game_type":"","subtitle":"","season":"","athletic_conference":"","tv_network":"","radio_station":"","wear_color":"","game_theme":"","history":"","history_text":"","related_stories":"","related_stories_text":"","game_notes":"","game_notes_text":"","recap_link":"","recap_link_text":"","live_stats":"","live_stats_text":"","game_time_tba":"No","sda_all_day":"No","opponent_logo":"","related_videos":"","related_videos_text":"","recurring":"yes"}},{"node":{"nid":"86651","title":"Thinking with Art: Work from the Collections of ASU English","campus":"Tempe campus","locations":"Ross-Blakley Hall 196","college_unit":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, Humanities, Humanities at ASU, School of Art, Division of Humanities, Humanities Institute - Art Exhibitions","department":"","field_cost_value":"Free","event_price_level":"Free","asu_events_price_desc":"Free","body_summary":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Thinking with Art\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekend\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","full_body":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Thinking with Art\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekends, university holidays and during private meetings.\u0026nbsp;See a representative at the front desk or the Humanities Institute for assistance.\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EWhat art do you live with?

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges.

Having grown up in a family that renovates houses, there is a continued fascination with observing their interiors and how people within inhabit the in-between.

Used for carrying, storing, protecting and discarding, bags are often temporary objects that move through our lives without much attention. Thurgood recreates these familiar forms in ceramic and textile, using surface embellishment, exaggerated scale and bright colors to give them a new presence. The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges. By spending significant time and labor transforming disposable objects into enduring sculptures, Thurgood shifts their place in our lives from something easily overlooked to something that can be examined and valued.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E\u201c(Un) Noticed\u201d asks viewers to pause and reconsider the ordinary objects that surround them, and to reflect on what they carry, why they carry it and how these objects can reveal something about the ways we live and interact with one another.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EImage: \u201cSeasonal Affection\u201d | Porcelain, stoneware, mason stains, gold | 17\u0022 x 12\u0022 x 21\u0022 (Left), 15\u0022 x 12\u0022 x 20.5\u0022 (Right)\u003C\/span\u003E | 2026\u003C\/p\u003E","phone":"","contactname":"Allie Thurgood","email":"athurgoo@asu.edu","delta":"3","alias":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/un-noticed-ma-thesis-exhibition?id=3","ticketing_rsvp_txt":"","ticketing_rsvp_txt2":"","ticketing_rsvp_url":"","ticketing_rsvp_url2":"","website":"","image_url":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-10\/Allie%20small.png","image_alt":"","image_title":"","start_date":"Nov 12 2026 - 9:00am","end_date":"Nov 12 2026 - 5:00pm","time_description":"Galery Hours\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMon\u2013Thurs | 9 a.m.\u20135 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFri | 9 a.m.\u20133 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nClosed on weekends and university holidays","very_start_date":"2026-11-12T09:00:00Z","very_end_date":"2026-11-12T17:00:00Z","event_types":"Exhibit, Exhibition, Misc events","interests":"Arts and Creative Expression|Events|Exhibition","audiences":"For current ASU students|For staff|For faculty|For the community","event_units":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts|School of Art|School of Art - Harry Wood Gallery","event_topics":"Arts and entertainment|Free|Open to the public","download":"\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-10\/Allie%20Flyer%20small.png","event_map_url":"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/FGppU84Yarq1bhvVA","event_map_title":"","event_video":"","location_term":"Tempe campus","venue_address":"900 S Forest Mall","venue_city":"Tempe","venue_state":"AZ","venue_zip":"85281","alias-indexed":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/un-noticed-ma-thesis-exhibition?id=3","sport_tag":"","game_type":"","subtitle":"","season":"","athletic_conference":"","tv_network":"","radio_station":"","wear_color":"","game_theme":"","history":"","history_text":"","related_stories":"","related_stories_text":"","game_notes":"","game_notes_text":"","recap_link":"","recap_link_text":"","live_stats":"","live_stats_text":"","game_time_tba":"No","sda_all_day":"No","opponent_logo":"","related_videos":"","related_videos_text":"","recurring":"yes"}},{"node":{"nid":"85071","title":"The Revolutionary Idea: A Window on Voting in America","campus":"Downtown Phoenix campus","locations":"Northlight Gallery","college_unit":"Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, School of Art, School of Art - Northlight Gallery","department":"School of Art","field_cost_value":"Free","event_price_level":"Free","asu_events_price_desc":"Free","body_summary":"\u003Cdiv class=\u0022uds-highlighted-heading\u0022\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highlight-gold\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EThe Revolutionary Idea: \u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E","full_body":"\u003Cdiv class=\u0022uds-highlighted-heading\u0022\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highlight-gold\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EThe Revolutionary Idea: a window on voting in America\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/h2\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EOct 16\u2013Nov 14 | Northlight Gallery\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EOpening reception | Oct 16 | 6\u20139 p.m.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EInspired by Frederick Douglass\u2019s 1852 speech, \u201cWhat to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?,\u201d The Revolutionary Idea brings together the work of Anna Rotty and Greg Miller, two photographers who independently turned their attention to the people and spaces that make elections possible.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Used for carrying, storing, protecting and discarding, bags are often temporary objects that move through our lives without much attention. Thurgood recreates these familiar forms in ceramic and textile, using surface embellishment, exaggerated scale and bright colors to give them a new presence. The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges.

Used for carrying, storing, protecting and discarding, bags are often temporary objects that move through our lives without much attention. Thurgood recreates these familiar forms in ceramic and textile, using surface embellishment, exaggerated scale and bright colors to give them a new presence. The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

In this conversation, LACMA curators Leah Lehmbeck, Bobbye Tigerman and Clarissa Esguerra will discuss the curatorial vision behind the reinstallation, examining how the museum has reconsidered traditional narratives through new thematic, cross-cultural and interdisciplinary frameworks. They will explore the intellectual and practical challenges of reinstalling a global collection within a new architectural context, including decisions around object selection, interpretive strategies, audience engagement and accessibility.

The works draw from everyday experiences, including grocery shopping, gift-giving, travel, celebration and convenience, while considering the abundance, excess and expectations connected to these exchanges.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.
