Union Hall Gallery Presents “Touchpoints with Artists: Darby Haily, Alex Parrasch, Andie Ryan Round, Emma Limtiaco, John Dewey, Sara Ajami, Sarah Stevenson February 7, 2025 - March 21, 2025 Opening Reception: Friday, February 7, 2025 5 p.m. - 8 p.m. During the opening reception, several of the artists will speak about their personal practice and the insights gained from creating collaborative work. The exhibition ’Touchpoints’, highlights the transformative potential of collaborative art making as explored through the student-led seminar "DISCO", created and facilitated by MFA candidate Darby Simmons at Claremont Graduate University. In this seminar, artists initiated individual artworks and passed them to fellow participants, with each piece evolving through the contributions of the group. The result is a dynamic collection of works embodying shared creative processes, innovation, and collective imagination. To complement these collaborative pieces, the exhibition will also feature one individual work from each artist, providing insight into their personal practices and sparking dialogue on the interplay between individual and collective creation. Please join us for the opening reception or during gallery hours. Gallery Hours: Fridays 2 p.m. – 6 p.m., Saturdays & Sundays: 11 a.m. – 5 p.m., and by appointment Visit: Union Hall Gallery
