Art Studio Alumni News & Exhibitions

Muzi Li Rowe (M.F.A., ‘17) began using simple tools to create marks on paper as a way to process grief after her mother’s sudden passing. Since then, she has been making drawings as a regular studio practice, while experimenting with various types of mediums and materials, and using drawing as a meditative practice. “Marginalia,” Rowe’s solo show at Axis Gallery, presents her drawings or visual diaries that reflect on the past, using abstract forms to bring back memories. 

Foundations is a seasonal online fair curated by Artsy that highlights new works from galleries featuring emerging artists. This year’s fair includes more than 130 galleries from 36 countries including Chili Art Projects, a London based artist run gallery that has included Will Maxen (M.F.A., ‘23) in their Winter Edition program.

Congratulations to Will Maxen (M.F.A., ‘23), a recent recipient of a Silver Art Project Residency.

Jordan Benton (M.F.A., ‘23) and Sandra Ono (B.A.,’03) have recently accepted new artist residencies at the Winslow House Project in Vallejo.
