Smiley Bag Portrait
Smiley Bag Portrait is a participatory art project where I invite pedestrians to sit model for me as I draw their portraits with Sharpie marker on the smiley faces of the common take-out plastic bags.
-
Since 2011 I have been performing this work on the street in New York and around the world by setting up the portrait stand on which I display samples of portrait bags. Names of participants, dates, locations, and the artist's signature are written on each portrait bags. Participants can get their portraits for free. In New York this bag is usually used at immigrant-owned stores, mostly Asian, although it is becoming less because New York has banned single-use plastic bags. Also many of street portrait artists in tourist places are immigrants. It was in light of this context that I conceived of an activity that would spark communication, connecting diverse groups. The experiences and exchanges that are caused by this performance are just as fundamental as the portrait results. Cheap common material with its equally mundane image is transformed into unique representations of each and every participant, producing one-of-a-kind creations and triggers the momentary connections and exchanges among strangers.
Nobutaka Aozaki is a New York-based artist born in Kagoshima, Japan. He works with objects and ephemera that he discovers in the city, musing over and reconceptualizing these sources in an attempt to imagine and establish contact between the city, the lives of others, and himself. Nobutaka studied at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and holds an MFA from Hunter College. His work has been shown at Japan Society, Brooklyn Museum, Queens Museum, Sculpture Center, ISCP, and he has performed at the Whitney Museum.

Black Lunch Table
BLT Photobooth
Black Lunch Table Wikimedians mobilize the creation and improvement of a specific set of Wikipedia articles that pertain to the lives and works of Black artists. The core activity of the BLT Wikimedians user group is edit-a-thons. It allows BLT as a user group to work together to increase the information and participation about and by our community. It also allows us to invite all editors to focus on the knowledge gap that exists around the lives and works of Black artists on the platform.
-
Recognizing that Wikipedia is not the only platform that lacks information about the lives of Black artists, the BLT Photobooth increases images of Black artists on Wikicommons. To make notable artists that fall in the Wiki gaps more visible, BLT invites professional photographers to host a pop-up portrait studio at events and make that work open license for free use, edit and distribution.
Everyone is invited to have their image taken, uploaded and contribute to the actual visibility of artists on Wikicommons.
Black Lunch Table’s (BLT) primary aim is the production of discursive sites, wherein artists and local community members engage in dialogue on a variety of critical issues. BLT mobilizes a democratic rewriting of contemporary cultural history by animating discourse around and among the people living it. First staged in 2005 at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture artist residency, the project has grown by way of contributions from and collaborations with artists, digital humanities researchers, and Wikipedians. BLT currently includes two roundtable series’, an online oral history archive, and a Wikipedia initiative. Much like its creation of physical spaces that foster community and generate critical dialogue, BLT creates a digital space for art, Black studies and social justice issues.

Reflections in Tea
Michele Brody will be presenting her community-engagement project Reflections in Tea, an interactive community-based public art project inspired by the worldwide tradition of drinking and sharing tea. The ritual performance of preparing loose-leaf tea within special paper filters is shared with individuals and groups. After which participants’ conversations are preserved by being transcribed onto the stained t-sacs that have been dried and flattened, culminating in the creation of an ever-growing set of fluttering paper quilts. From afar these quilts form an overall composition of a craggy mountain range reminiscent of the mountain sides where tea grows, while when read up close are seen to be pieced together with over 1,500 individual handwritten notes and unique drawings.
-
Initially envisioned as a mobile teahouse, the main component of Reflections in Tea is the invitation of the public to enter and sit within her Tea Tent of Many Stories to share a cup of tea and their stories. By taking the time to cross the threshold of the teahouse, each participant is introduced to how the drinking of tea is practiced throughout the world as a transformative custom.
Reflections in Tea first originated on the streets within a NYC coffee cart, retrofitted as a roving sidewalk Teahouse at the 2007 D.U.M.B.O. Arts Festival. After this successful premier the project moved indoors in 2008 to the Brenda Taylor Gallery within a collapsible teahouse constructed out of copper pipe with translucent walls strung out with rows of participants’ inscribed tea stained paper filters. Over the years Brody’s Tea Ceremony has set up house on the Lower East Side at the Henry Street Settlement and the Tenement Museum in a copper clad push cart, at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden during the 2011 Cherry Blossom Festival, as an artist-in-residence at the Hudson Guild Gallery II and on view in the Community Gallery at the Bronx Museum of the Arts in 2016. For the past 6 years Reflections in Tea has been serving regularly to senior citizens and communities in The Bronx though a series of multi-media performances and poetry centered events called CommuniTeas. The culminating goal these events and installation is to reflect back onto the community both a visual and virtual experience of their collective memories and experiences. Where their variety of voices, languages, penmanship, poetry and stories come together to create a unifying expression of the diversity that holds communities together.
Michele Brody received her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1994, and attended Skowhegan in 1996. She has been the recipient of a grant or residency almost every year since then from such institutions as the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Pollock/Krasner Foundation, New York Foundation for the Arts, Bronx Council on the Arts and New York State Council on the Arts. Brody has worked as an artist-in-residence at the Headlands Center for the Arts, Ox-Bow, Emmanuel College, Wave Hill and the Marie Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation. In 2006 she completed two permanent works of public art in The Bronx for the MTA and the Department of Education’s Public Art for Public Schools program. In 2011 she was awarded the Best 3-D Entry at the international Art Prize competition in Grand Rapids, MI by juror Glenn Harper of Sculpture Magazine for her installation “Nature Preserve” at the Urban Institute for Contemporary Art. Michele Brody currently resides and works in The Bronx.

Badminton Set
A hand crocheted a pink plastic raffia badminton net recalling the original net made in the open field of Skowhegan's lower campus in summer of 2017. This 13-foot-long textile is made using single crochet, looping the sleek pink line back and forth to create a frame of stitches around a neatly netted center. This net stands as a sculptural installation and is also open to be played. Racquets and shuttlecocks are there for anyone wanting to RALLY in the street. A point person will be available to instruct and engage with folks who are interested in looking and or playing.

Anthropussy (Eli Hill)
2019 Alumni
You Must Destroy It
Anthropussy—the queen for the Anthropocene—presents, You Must Destroy It, a one-bug drag show exploring the overlapping gluttony of desire, revenge, and gender performance through the eyes of a heartbroken Spotted Lanternfly.
-
The Spotted Lanternfly is an invasive species spreading globally that destroys an array of vital crops such as wood and fruit plots. In You Must Destroy It, Anthropussy dons the red, cream, and polka-dotted garb of the eye-catching and invasive creature, and recounts an unrequited love story between herself and a human. In this tale, we come to understand that her hunger to destroy stems from her feelings of disappointment, devastation, and failure to be perceived as beautiful. By soothing her rage and shame with the ravenous destruction of the ecosystem, she destroys the habitat of the person she loves. Set to an array of music by Lorde, Donna Summer, Stevie Nicks, Tracy Chapman, and Charli XCX, our winged protagonist grows, and ultimately asks herself: Who am I without my anger?
Anthropussy is the drag persona of artist, writer, and transgender being, Eli Hill (he/him). He is a graduate of The Cooper Union and Rutgers University. He was a participant at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2019. He has presented solo exhibitions at Palo Gallery, Mason Gross Galleries, and ZH Projects. His work has been in group exhibitions at Olympia, The Miami Art Museum, 41 Cooper Gallery, and 56 HENRY. He penned the title essay for Ceysson & Bénétière’s publication, ORLAN before ORLAN and his writing has been featured in Art in America, Artsy, and The Brooklyn Rail.

The Ground Beneath My Feet
Video
3 hours
I am based in Bangladesh, and describe myself as an art practitioner, my practice ranges between live art, sculpture, performance, animation, installations, drawing and nonsense verse. I used my body as the primary material, realizing concepts in every media. And my performance in large part improvised; dwell on issues such as chaos of contemporary metropolitan life, evidence of psyche and physical stress, identity, and articulations of collective histories and memories.

Doomba
Doomba is a performance from a larger series titled, On Utopianism. This work reflects on the utopia-driven concepts of the Bauhaus which focused on the idea that design could redefine the structures of human behavior. The series of works in On Utopianism share two common themes. The first is highlighting the historic failures of utopias on the grand scale while celebrating the smaller-scale successes of various products stemming from utopic-minded thinking. The second is reconsidering the way we think about labor, questioning the division of labor and asking what it might look like if we evolved past the point of human labor being necessary, how we might get there, and if that would actually be a good thing.
This specific performance hopes to challenge the thinking of Bauhaus ideology through destabilizing traditional divisions of labor and then blurring them through the lens of post-humanism, absurdity, and irrationality, using the catalyst of “interpersonal” dynamics.

Cloudburst, Erebus Ice Tongue Cave, Antarctica (2015/2017)
-
Crystals hang from an interior ceiling just inside the cave entrance. The Erebus ice tongue is the end of a glacier that extends onto the sea ice on McMurdo Sound. A small opening in the tongue leads to an ice cave containing unusual and fragile ice crystal structures. It is accessible only a few weeks a year. Further back, it is pitch dark, but just inside it, the ceiling had a blue glow, illuminated by sunlight filtering through the ice. I photographed it while in Antarctica for seven weeks through the National Science Foundation Antarctic Artists and Writers Program.
Helen Glazer's photography and photo-based sculpture are profoundly influenced by scientific insights on the physical forces that shape natural environments, including human activity. A 2015 participant in the National Science Foundation Antarctic Artists and Writers Program, her solo show of that project premiered at Goucher College, Baltimore, in 2017 and will be toured nationally by the Mid-America Arts Alliance 2022-2027 (eusa.org). Glazer was 2014-15 Baltimore Ecosystem Study artist-in-residence, a 2017 finalist for the MD-DC-VA Trawick Prize, and 2012 recipient of a Maryland State Arts Council Individual Artist Award in photography. She had a solo show of photographs at Nailya Alexander Gallery, New York, in 2012. Her Antarctica archive is in the collection of the Center for Art + Environment at the Nevada Museum and was exhibited there throughout 2020. She is one of the co-founders of the Antarctic Artists and Writers Collective and is part of their online exhibition Adequate Earth (aawcollective.com). She recently returned from a month in Greenland, where she is working on a photo book and exhibition in collaboration with the Kangerlussuaq Museum, funded in part by a Rubys Award from the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation.

A TRIBUTE TO KŌRYÕ MIURA AND SONIA DELAUNAY (2021)
Foam core, gaffers tape and paint.
-
Maya Hayuk (A ’11) is a Ukrainian-American artist best known for her massively-scaled site-specific artworks seen around the world. Her iconic, geometric, brightly woven style is instantly recognizable and challenges the trend of narrative work seen in today’s onslaught of outdoor murals. Her iconic improvised experiments speak to the artist’s obsession with perfect imperfection, outer/ inner space as they conjure woven, knit and embroidered handiwork re-proportioned on a massive scale. Hayuk’s work is represented in numerous public and private collections; she has been the recipient of several grants and has been the subject of one person exhibitions at venues including The Albright-Knox Museum (2021), FRAC Museum Dunkerque, FR (2019) and The Hammer Museum, LA (2013). Hayuk earned a BFA in Interrelated Media (SIM) at Massachusetts College of Art and has been a guest faculty member at several universities and art schools. In 2018, Hayuk gave a TEDx Talk in Brussels.
For the fall semester of 2021 Hayuk is a guest artist/ lecturer at MIT’s Master of Architecture program alongside Joseph Choma, the Founder of the Design Topology Lab and an Associate Professor of Architecture at Clemson University, where he directs the Master of Science in Architecture program. As a researcher, his interests lie at the intersection of mathematics, folding, structure and materials. In particular, he is the inventor of ‘Foldable Composite Structures’— U.S. Patent Number 10,994,468.
He completed graduate studies in design and computation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Currently he is completing a PhD in Architecture at the University of Cambridge, UK where he is a Cambridge International Scholar.
Hayuk and Choma’s first collaboration draws very naturally from each artist’s respective practices in creating a variegated structure inspired by the Miura-Ori folding technique which originated from origami, but is applied to practical use in outer space satellite design and engineering. Hayuk’s love for Sonia Delaunay’s pioneering color and form, also drawing from her Ukrainian roots, proposes to converge with Choma’s design in a new light.

In this work Moro reconstructed the Indian paths of Lenape tribes in New York City based on cartographic documents of the mid-nineteenth century, which in turn refer to earlier maps of the seventeenth century drawn by European explorers who in the 1600s navigated the Hudson for the first time. This map was prompted by an invitation by Kitty Harmon, and published in her book You Are Here NYC: Mapping the Soul of the City (Princeton University Press, 2016).
Simonetta Moro is a visual artist, scholar, and educator. Her work has been exhibited in Europe and in the United States, including BRIC Arts and Media Center; The Brooklyn Historical Society, New York; Galleria del Carbone, Ferrara, Italy; Lesley Heller gallery, New York; the Center for Architecture, New York; Clara Hatton Gallery, Fort Collins, Colorado; Apex Art, New York; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; the American Academy in Rome, Italy; the Harris Museum, Preston, UK. Her book Mapping Paradigms in Modern and Contemporary Art: Poetic Cartography has been published by Routledge (2021). Education: PhD in Fine Arts, University of Central Lancashire, Preston, UK; MA, Winchester School of Art, UK; BFA Painting, Accademia di Belle Arti, Bologna, Italy. She currently lives in New York City, and she is the Vice President for Academic Affairs, Director, and Associate Professor at the Institute for Doctoral Studies in the Visual Arts (IDSVA).

Prince’s work is in numerous private collections as well as The NYC Medical Examiner’s Building. Prince’s studio is in NY’s Hudson Valley and she is an art professor at William Paterson University.
From the artist:
After years spent exploring the Italian landscape, and just before Covid hit, I began a search for tangible beauty in our own country for my American Beauty series. Starting with oil pastel drawings en plein air, while on a western road trip summer 2019, these drawings were the basis for studio paintings done throughout the Pandemic. Drawing in the desert and on the side of roads in 100 degree heat, the challenge of the elements seemed to foreshadow the difficulty of times to come. While environmental and societal devastation abounds, I consider it a political act to immerse myself in the landscape to record the natural beauty lurking there: to incite the arousal of sentiment, a stirring of connectedness that might inspire us to carry on and still dream.

Hand-cut collage (enlarged)
-
Vabianna Santos’ interdisciplinary work is populated by sudden transformations, interwoven gender, mischievously updated metaphysical themes and encounters pushed out to the unthinkable. (He)r work indulges in willful contradiction, combining performance with physical illusions. The collision of fields of color, musical instruments, architectural references, alien terrains and text invent a world of permeability between body and object. S(he) is interested in demonstrating how we live in our bodies is a vital source of knowledge.
S(he) has exhibited and performed internationally, showing at Hammer Museum, MOCA North Miami, Vox Populi, and Headlands Center for the Arts. (He)r work has been reviewed in WhiteHot Magazine of Contemporary Art. S(he) attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2013. S(he) received a Master’s degree in Visual Arts from University of California San Diego (2013) and a BFA in Interdisciplinary Sculpture from Maryland Institute College of Art (2007). S(he) is currently pursuing a PhD in Performance Studies at UCLA by building an ethics of compassion and negation in contemporary art through elements of antinomian religion and queer mythologies.

This piece consists of designs from a Comanche rug and Mexican tiles. The two cultures were in close proximity and influenced each other. The piece is part of a series in which designs from pariah and “othered” cultures in the USA are layered on transparent drafting film, and some of the original colors are replaced with the red, white, and blue of the American flag. Issues of cultural value, identity, and appropriation are raised. Also, the sacredness of the American experiment is implicated; when the original pieces are shown as windows, they mimic stained glass.
Tricia Townes is a painter and educator.

First Flag (2021)
This flag borrows its pattern from a painting I made for a new human. Apparently, newborns are attracted to round shapes with light and dark borders (like adult eyes) and only see in black and white for about their first four months of life. It turns out babies are interested in pretty much the same kinds of graphics I'm interested in.

KALEIDOSCOPIC BEE FLOWERS QUILT (2021)
The colors for this collaged silk screen print are based on specific flowers that bees love to pollinate: rugosa rose, butterfly milkweed, meadowsweet, purple cone flower, and borage. Through the flowers, the piece addresses the endangered bee population and thus the importance of how pollination impacts food production, biodiversity, plant growth, wild plant growth and wildlife habitats.

Scenes from the Apocalypse: Drone Captures the Hand of God (2021)
This piece is from a series called Scenes from the Apocalypse which utilizes dark humor and cartoon like narratives to grapple with the frustration of living among humans. I feel it’s fitting for this Skowhegan event as while in residence I was involved with two other women in creating prank art we would float in the lake for folks to find in the morning. Everyone was convinced the guys were doing it which was interesting. It was three fed up young women, all of us having been educated in California, up all night laughing and sculpting.
