Slow Drift is a long-term photography project examining subtle links between climate change, identity, and colonial legacy in Maryland’s former tobacco economies and plantations. Using color analog and experimental processes, it documents former plantations, historic Black communities, and surrounding landscapes and towns, conveying time through changing landscapes, built environments, vegetation, objects, and intergenerational personal stories.
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 Slowdrift with an artist talk with the artist-herself !
Combs creates interactive sculptures that explore surveillance, control, and algorithmic failure. Using facial recognition and motion sensing, his works respond directly to viewers, blending technology with wood, metal, and found objects. Both immersive and critical, his practice invites audiences to question the systems that increasingly shape human experience.
Can a photograph change the way we remember our lives? Artist and educator Cat Simmons invites her audience into a fascinating exploration of memory, trauma, and transformation. Through the physical deconstruction and reconstruction of photographs, she reveals how art can become a powerful tool for reframing the past and reimagining the self.
