The process of hand-building with clay gives volume and mass to my thoughts and is an integral part of my creative practice. The imprints left on the surface are the indelible record of this method. Through the affordances of this material, earthenware has an uncomplicated way of encoding the marks of my hands, storing those actions, and recalling them to the viewer on its surface. Employing an aesthetic of accumulation, these forms are more than just aesthetically pleasing objects - they represent the value and judgment of relationships between myself and others.

In the Spirit of the Hills is a solo exhibition by interdisciplinary artist Steffi Faircloth. Through video, text, sound, and sculpture, this exhibition examines the everyday occurrences of growing up in the borderlands. Faircloth employs mundaneness, humor, and sexuality to dissect the extent to which the customs and norms of bordertown existence are shaped by external authorities as opposed to the collective community. With the fusion of personal subjectivity and geographical spaces, Faircloth's work transcends the confines of mere physical location.

Sustainability is a philosophy at ASU and we incorporate it into education, operations outreach and research. ASU is an innovative academic laboratory and demonstration model of sustainable processes and practices.
ASU campuses include a variety of buildings, programs, and design elements that embody the university’s building toward being a “living laboratory” for sustainability. The Sustainability Tour highlights several “Sustainability Points of Pride” that exemplify ASU’s effort to incorporate the principles of sustainability into its physical and academic environment.

"Traces Between" is a solo MFA exhibition by Dylan Fitzgibbons. The work examines ideas of reality, and what it means to be created through the collaboration of the physical world and imagined spaces. The curated environment is filled with superimposed black-sand sculptures that teeter between the light and shadows, begging for attention before shying away.
In 2017, eight ASU students lived for 30 days in an abandoned motel in Amboy, California, on 4 gallons of water a day (per person) to experience life under extreme water scarcity (the usual water usage patterns for Tempe are 80-100 gallons/day). This art-sustainability project was called Drylab 2023, because it envisioned a near future (2023) where the Southwest would experience a severe water crisis. The participants shared their experiences via social media, and you can still find their stories on this website.
