  • Harvest & Gather is pleased to present "missed connections", an exhibition that facilitates collaboration between artists who might have once worked together, but the stars did not align in their favor or their spirits could not quite connect. Each invited artist has selected another artist to exhibit with, thus fulfilling their missed connection at the Athenaeum. Moving beyond an exchange of glances but nothing more and the “you-smiled-at-me-on-the-subway-platform” prose of personal ads, Harvest & Gather seeks to allow the exhibiting artists a working opportunity to intimately connect with another artist’s work and practice. Artists are Deanna Barahona and Susan Aparicio; Katie Delaney and Elaine Fisher; Maria Antonia Eguiarte and Liz Nurenberg; and Stephen Rivas and A.R. Tran.Harvest & Gather is an experimental, nomadic curatorial project founded by mika Castañeda & Cat Gunn in 2023. With an emphasis on creating makeshift spaces for art anywhere at any moment, the project exists beyond traditional galleries and museums through pop-up shows in various locations.ARTISTSDeanna Barahona is a first-generation multidisciplinary artist from Southern California working in text, photography, installation, and sculpture. Barahona examines subcultures that emerge in Southern California’s integration process with materials referencing architecture, adornments, and symbols within the homes of the Latin American diaspora. Barahona’s work has been in exhibitions at Charlie James Gallery, Los Angeles; Bread + Salt, San Diego; Island 83 Gallery, New York City; Mandeville Gallery, La Jolla; Bakersfield Museum of Art; Two Rooms, San Diego; and Residencia 797, Guadalajara. She is set to participate in a group exhibition at Museo Raúl Anguiano in Guadalajara in the summer of 2024 and a solo exhibition at the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art in 2025. Barahona holds a BA in visual arts from California State University, Bakersfield, and an MFA from the University of California, San Diego. Susan Aparicio is a Southeast Los Angeles native, a daughter of Mexican and Honduran parents, and a visual artist experimenting in the mediums of stained glass, experimental video, and installation. Her stained-glass work explores worship, desire, and Latinidad-through-pop-culture-inspired imagery from the early 2000s to today, blending bling and beauty to make the fake feel real. Her works explore the complex relationship between reality and states of being, inviting viewers to reflect on their existence within our natural, digital, and consumer worlds. Her works have been exhibited at Leiminspace, Bellyman, LaPau Gallery, Charlie James Gallery, the California Museum, the Hudson River Museum, Texas Tech University, and Cal State Dominguez Hills, among others. Her work has been recognized by publications such as LVL3 Magazine and the Daily Bruin. Aparicio was a resident at Caldera Arts Residency and the Artists’ Cooperative Residency & Exhibitions (ACRE). She earned dual BA degrees in studio art and cognitive science from the University of Virginia in 2018. She then earned her MFA in art from UCLA in 2022. Aparicio is currently based in Pasadena.Katie Delaney (they/them) is a queer, non-binary artist based in Philadelphia. Their practice questions the role of the gender binary in generational trauma by creating work within a “mythspace” that transfigures traditional storytelling. They hold an MFA from the University of Delaware (’24) and a BFA in sculpture from Towson University (’20). Their work has been exhibited internationally at Galería Municipal de Arte, Valparaíso, Chile; virtually at the Alternative Art School, Vox Populi; Grizzly Grizzly, Philadelphia; throughout the DMV, ICA Baltimore; Delaplaine Art Center, Frederick, Maryland; and The Hen House, Washington, D.C.Elaine Fisher received her BA in archaeology and ancient history from the University of Liverpool in 1996 and her MFA from the University of Gloucestershire in 2015. She continues her research independently and collaboratively in the areas of art, archaeology, and depth psychology, through place-based residencies and commissions, including B-side Festival; SLUICE Exchange, Berlin; and most recently at The Florence Trust , London. In 2022 she was invited to exhibit her COVID project Domestic Structures at Project 1628 in Baltimore.

Working across photography, video, sound, and writing, Rivas creates deeply personal, multilayered works that interrogate intersections of history, identity, and resistance. His work often adopts an autobiographical lens, utilizing multi-channeled projections to weave narratives that explore memory, love, death, joy, anarchy, and the fleeting nature of time within his family’s collective history. Central to Rivas’s practice is the critique of colonial narratives and systems of power. By uncovering the preexisting “threads” of resistance and resilience within his family’s past—what he refers to as “weapons against empires”—Rivas reclaims stories that challenge dominant historical frameworks. As systemic oppression persists, Rivas sees focusing on past resistance as a method of preserving memory and a strategy for imagining liberated futures. His work highlights the connections between historical uprisings and contemporary struggles, emphasizing the enduring relevance of resilience and decentralized resistance.Rivas’s installations invite viewers into a space where personal and political histories collide, emphasizing the importance of storytelling as a tool for survival and subversion. Rivas completed his BFA in 2019 at the California Institute of the Arts, where he began exploring themes of identity, migration, and memory. He later earned an MFA from the University of California, Irvine in 2023, further refining his interdisciplinary practice and conceptual approach. A.R. Tran was born in Monterey Park, California, in 1993 and moved to New York in 2011 to attend New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study. In 2015, he received his BA in Critical Race Theory and visual studies and was awarded the Finish Line Grant and Founder’s Day Award. That same year he was selected to participate in the Gallatin Arts Festival as a visual and performance artist. For more than five years, he worked in arts education and public programming for institutions such as the Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts (MoCADA), the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Mark Morris Dance Center and participated in a number of student shows at 205 Hudson Street. In 2020, he enrolled in the University of California, Irvine’s MFA program in art. There he developed his interdisciplinary art practice while taking PhD-level courses in Critical Race Theory and Black studies. In 2022, he was accepted into UC Irvine’s Pedagogical Fellowship program, was nominated for the Tom Angell Fellowship, and was named a Claire Trevor Society Scholar in Art. In spring 2023, he was awarded an Interdisciplinary Research residency at UC Irvine’s Experimental Media Performance Lab (xMPL) and his solo exhibition, entitled "THE ROOT OF DESIRE IN VIOLENT AND I STILL WANT TO BE WANTED", opened at University Art Gallery in Irvine.The exhibition can be viewed in the Joseph Clayes III and Carolyn Yorston-Wellcome Rotunda Galleries at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library (1008 Wall Street, La Jolla, CA 92037) during open hours, Tuesday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.Visit: https://www.ljathenaeum.org/events/exhibition-2025-harvest-gather-walkAthenaeum Music & Arts Library on Instagram and Facebook
