SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening for "Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022"
DESCRIPTION:All are invited to an exhibition opening celebration for Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022. Join us from 7-8:30 p.m.\, with remarks by exhibition curator Laura Ritchie at 7:30 p.m. \nIn Myth & Memory\, five artists interrogate practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Originating in personal narrative\, each artist engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible that which has been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Through intimate gestures and acts of subversion\, they reframe the lens through which memory is archived to tell new stories from a restructured past. Their work imagines potential futures in which marginalized bodies are not under siege. \nParticipating artists are the five UNC-Chapel Hill Class of 2022 Master of Fine Arts in studio art candidates: Raj Bunnag\, Charlie Dupee\, Hugo Ljungbäck\, Phượng Duyên Hải Nguyễn\, and Stella Rosalie Rosen. Myth & Memory is curated by Laura Ritchie ’10 (MFA)\, a curator\, arts administrator\, and cultural worker in Durham\, North Carolina; she is a founder and former Executive Director of The Carrack. \nThis exhibition is made possible by the generous support of Maryanna and Will Johnson and The Seymour and Carol Levin Foundation.

SUMMARY:Animation Workshop with Stella Rosalie Rosen
DESCRIPTION:Join Stella Rosalie Rosen\, 2022 MFA candidate whose work is featured in Myth & Memory\, for a special hands-on workshop on Index Card Animation! \nIn this workshop\, participants will learn the basics of 2D frame animation on paper using pencils and index cards. After a short lecture\, a demonstration\, and a few screenings of animated works drawn on paper\, participants will be encouraged to experiment with animations of their own on index cards following a theme generated by the group. The group’s work will be photographed and compiled into a short film at the end of class. At the end of this workshop\, participants will have learned how drawing frame-by-frame creates motion and movement in animation. Participants will even gain the tools to create their own animated works at home! \nSpace is extremely limited and a free ticket is required (register below). This workshop is for ages 13+. \nPresented in connection with Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022. This exhibition and its related programs are made possible by the generous support of Maryanna & Will Johnson and The Seymour & Carol Levin Foundation. \n— \nStella Rosalie Rosen is an experimental animator and has been honing her skills since 2017. She works with a variety of other techniques\, including clay animation\, puppetry\, replacement animation\, and live-action video\, but finds her home in plain old graphite on paper. Rosen’s work uses narrative animation to illuminate stories that draw from her own experience living in an austere and industrialized world where oppressive hierarchies cause the abjection of certain bodies and the destruction of the natural world. Rosen finds inspiration in plants\, animals\, overheard conversations\, childhood obsessions\, and things she finds on the ground. She has had her films shown at festivals all over the world\, including Bushwick Film Festival\, Brooklyn Women’s Film Festival\, Oakland Short Film Festival\, Cosmic Rays\, and Florida Animation Festival. Rosen earned her undergraduate degree in biology\, and carries a fascination with the natural world into all of her work. Rosen studied animation at Vancouver Film School and California Institute of the Arts. She was raised in New York City and is now based out of Durham\, NC. \nVisit Stella’s website.

SUMMARY:Artist-Led Tour of “Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022”
DESCRIPTION:Join the 2022 Master of Fine Arts students for a special walk-through! This tour will be led by all five MFA candidates and introduced by exhibition curator Laura Ritchie. \nThrough the work of five artists\, Myth & Memory imagines a future in which the margins become the center. Drawing from personal narrative\, each of the artists engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible the stories that have been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Their work interrogates practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Intimate gestures and acts of subversion reframe the lens through which memory is archived and myth is defined. As a result\, new stories emerge from a restructured past. \nPresented in connection with Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022. This program is sponsored by the Orange County Arts Commission.

SUMMARY:Drop-In Printmaking Workshop with Raj Bunnag
DESCRIPTION:Drop-In Printmaking Workshop with Raj Bunnag \n6-7:30 p.m.  \n \nJoin Raj Bunnag\, 2022 MFA candidate whose work is featured in Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022\, for a special hands-on printmaking workshop during the 2nd Friday ArtWalk!  \n  \nIn this drop-in workshop\, visitors will be able to make their own tiny stamps using hand-carved blocks made by Bunnag. Watch as Bunnag demonstrates his printmaking techniques and create your own small prints to take home. This workshop will take place outdoors and attendees are welcome to stay for as long as they like during the hour and a half-long program.   \n \nMaterials for this event have been generously donated by Speedball. Presented in connection with Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022. Part of the Chapel-Hill Carrboro 2nd Friday ArtWalk. \n— \nRaj Bunnag is a Thai American artist living and working in Durham\, North Carolina. He received his BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2012 with an emphasis in Printmaking. He is currently an MFA candidate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Bunnag’s practice examines systematic racism inherent to the foundations of the US\, its institutions\, and its domestic/global policies\, through themes in the lineage of print. In his more personal work\, he is researching the ideas and baggage that come with self-identity as the son of immigrants and what it means to be a non-white body existing in white spaces. He has shown work nationally and internationally as well as received numerous awards for his relief printed work.
