About this Event
During her Solo Residency, San Antonio-based artist, Marcy McChesney is creating a body of work that is specific to the city of New Orleans as a subject itself. The artist is investigating the women of New Orleans and their role in society, whether through family ties, healing capacities, religious practices, etc.
On Friday, January 24, 2025, 4-6PM, the public is invited to visit Kolaj Institute Gallery to meet the artist and see how the artwork is progressing.
ABOUT KOLAJ INSTITUTE'S SOLO RESIDENCIES
The mission of Kolaj Institute is to support artists, curators, and writers who seek to study, document, and disseminate ideas that deepen our understanding of collage as a medium, a genre, a community, and a 21st century movement. We operate a number of initiatives meant to bring together community, investigate critical issues, and raise collage’s standing in the art world. Kolaj Institute’s Solo Residencies are designed to provide artists, curators, and writers with dedicated time and space to work on a project, develop their practice, and make artwork.
