McColl Center for Visual Art continued from Page 31 phrases that note various notions of time and how one perceives it. This exhibition documents and explores creative ways of expressing or marking time from the specific to the poetic. Featuring artwork by Gail Wight (Associate Professor Art & Art History, Stanford University) and Mary Tsiongas (Associate Professor Electronic Media, University of New Mexico), the exhibit presents many ways we, in fact, measure and perceive time, and in so doing enriches our understanding of them both. Through video, installation, and mixed media the two artists explore the subjective nature of time and show how an understanding of science can influence the practice of contemporary art. The Winter 2013 Artist-in-Residence exhibition presents the work of nine talented artists. Their work will be on display in the 2nd and 3rd floor gallery space and studios. Katherine Allen is the Gail Thomas Peacock Art Teacher-in-Residence. She is inspired by texture, form, and a love of nature. Allen creates objects of adornment and natural beauty. Carolyn Braaksma is the CATS Artistin-Residence. As a public artist, Braaksma executes large-scale commissions that incorporate visual art into infrastructure projects using concrete, steel, and stone. Andrea Chung, Artist-in-Residence, explores archival materials such as photographs and tourist publications to recon- struct narratives that sell romantic notions about nature and labor. Elizabeth Connor is the Environmental Artist-in-Residence. Both a public and studio artist, Conner represents movement and change into works of art that incorporate local stories, conversations and explorations. Brian Knep and Natalie Andrew, are the Carolinas HealthCare Artist-in- Residence. Both artists will combine their interests in mythology, journeys, transformation, and notions of magic to create a large, interactive wall piece for the Levine Children’s Hospital. Joyce Scott is the Knight Artist-in- Residence. Blending popular culture with her ancestry, Scott creates provocative and confrontational works of art that address contentious political and social issues such as gender, race, and class struggle. Erin V. Sotak, the UNC Charlotte Artist-in-Residence, is a storyteller whose work is narrated through the use of symbolic colors, iconic objects, cultural references, and historical allusions. Mel Chin, the Knight Artist-in-Residence is known for the broad range of approaches in his practice, his work is largely motivated by political, cultural, and social circumstances.
