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.

Together, these works demonstrate art\u0027s capacity to navigate the spaces between cultures, materials and meaning.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","phone":"","contactname":"Mikey Estes","email":"mikey.estes@asu.edu","delta":"2","alias":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/event\/new-graduate-exhibition-2026?id=2","ticketing_rsvp_txt":"","ticketing_rsvp_txt2":"","ticketing_rsvp_url":"","ticketing_rsvp_url2":"","website":"","image_url":"https:\/\/asuevents.asu.edu\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/2026-08\/smaller_0.png","image_alt":"","image_title":"","start_date":"Sep 17 2026 - 5:00pm","end_date":"Sep 17 2026 - 9:00pm","time_description":"Gallery Hours\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMonday \u2013 Thursday | 9 a.m.\u20135 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFridays | 9 a.m.\u20133 p.m.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nClosed on weekends and university holidays","very_start_date":"2026-09-17T17:00:00Z","very_end_date":"2026-09-17T21:00:00Z","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|Family friendly|Free","download":"","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\/new-graduate-exhibition-2026?id=2","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":"82241","title":"\u0022Stays Cold Longer\u0022 Art Exhibition","campus":"Tempe campus","locations":"RBH197, Ross-Blakley Hall","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\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Stays Cold Longer\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekends, uni\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","full_body":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0022Stays Cold Longer\u0022 is open to the public.\u0026nbsp;The exhibition is closed on weekends, university holidays and during private meetings.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPresented in collaboration with\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/art.asu.edu\/\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003Ethe School of Art\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E, the exhibition is curated by\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/search.asu.edu\/profile\/973833\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003Eschool director and associate professor Hilary Harp\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E.

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.

Through these interventions, they seek to disturb the \u201cconsensus of reality\u201d and draw attention to the invisible infrastructures that shape it.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EGrace Piontek (they\/them)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is a visual artist exploring the ecology of queer animacy, intimacy and its expression. 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. She explores how domestic spaces are structured to mirror the psyche. Working across painting and drawing intertwined with direct observation and self-portraiture, her practice investigates themes of identity, intimacy and absence. 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.

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.

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.

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. Through an insider\u0027s perspective on one of the most significant museum projects in recent years, the lecture will illuminate the complexities of large-scale curatorial collaboration and the evolving role of permanent collections in the twenty-first century.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch5\u003ESpeaker bios\u003C\/h5\u003E\u003Cp\u003EClarissa M.
