Hataałii, a Navajo artist, works across visual art, music, and poetry. This program pairs a solo exhibition, Singe the Head, with a live musical performance. Singe the Head examines reservation life and the disorientation of urban existence through oneiric, emotionally charged images, addressing cultural absence and displacement while drawing on Navajo memory to restore continuity. Hataałii will also perform solo, presenting songs that explore life, identity, and community.
TACTILE is a group exhibition featuring artists who work in tactile, accessible mediums. Through processes such as sewing, felting, weaving, assemblage, and sculpting, Sally Molenda, Natalie Kuenzi, Stephanie Williams, Roxana Alger Geffen, and Jade Jefferson explore connection through the language of touch.
TACTILE examines how physical interaction and handmade practices foster emotional and sensory connections. Through material, gesture, and touch, the exhibition highlights each artist’s relationship to fabric, fibers, and textiles, inviting viewers to reconsider how we connect—with objects, with materials, and with one another.
The Development of Low-Fire Wood Firing Techniques, and the Making of Monsters is a post-sabbatical exhibition by Salisbury-based artist and faculty David Smith. His focus began on developing glazes and firing schedules for low-fire wood firings nearing 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, which is a relatively un-explored process in the world of contemporary ceramics and pottery.
Join us for the Opening reception for David Smith: The Development of Low-Fire Wood Firing Techniques, and the Making of Monsterswith an artist talk with the artist-himself !
