A Duo Exhibition by Julie DeVries & Sebastien Boncy, "Fields," opens Monday, September 30 in the TWU West Gallery.
Working in painting, sculpture, and digital media, Julie DeVries mines poignant memories and observations of nature in the urban and suburban environment which illustrate our impact on the natural world and the effects of green spaces on our emotional well-being. She was born and raised in Houston, TX and still currently lives and works there with her husband, photographer Sebastien Boncy, and their daughter, Louise. She received her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago focusing on painting and Latin American art history and spent a semester studying abroad with family in Argentina. She then received her MFA in painting and drawing from the University of Houston and currently serves as a Visual Arts faculty member at Lone Star College North Harris.
Sebastien Boncy, born in Haiti and shipwrecked in Texas, is all six members of the Pugilist Press collective. In the last decade, he’s maintained a hyperlocal practice centered around an online photographic archive of the city: Purple Time Space Swamp. His photographs have been exhibited at Art League Houston, Visible Records, The Mystic Lyon, Galveston Art Center, among others. His reviews and essays have been published by Glasstire, Not That But This, Sugar and Rice, Found Me Mag, Art + Culture, Flat Files, Common Field, Fotodok, and Fototazo.
Exhibition runs SEPTEMBER 30 – OCTOBER 25, 2024 in the TWU West Gallery.
