The Space We Make Exhibition Opens at the Alexey Von Schlippe Gallery on February 6th, 2025
Avery Point, CT—The Alexey Von Schlippe Gallery at the University of Connecticut Avery Point is pleased to announce, The Space We Make, an exhibition showcasing works by first- and second-year Master of Fine Arts candidates. Curated by Sonja Langford, the exhibition will open on February 6, 2025, with a public reception from 5:30-7:30pm, and will run through March 15, 2025.
The Space We Make reflects on how artists navigate the tension between solitude and community. Making art often begins as a deeply personal act, one that happens in the quiet of a studio or the recesses of the mind. Yet, as these works take form and enter the public realm, they spark something larger—a collective space where individual experiences and perspectives converge. In this exhibition, you will encounter works that range from tender explorations to bold interventions of material, memory, and research. Each piece holds its own distinct energy, but together they build a conversation about what it means to create, to share, and to inhabit the spaces we make.
Admission to The Space We Make is free and open to the public. For additional information, please contact Jeanne Ciravolo or visit https://avsgallery.sfa.uconn.edu
