Show statement :

Office hours are typically reserved for faculty to meet with students, allotted time for advising and mentoring. For art professors, office hours extend into their studio practice, where they explore techniques and concepts to enrich their pedagogy. This collaborative exhibition celebrates the creative exchange between Instructor Emma Barnes and her painting students. As Barnes navigates the intersections of painting, plaster and photography, she explores the narrative and material possibilities of her work. Barnes’s students reflect bold, experimental leaps of their own – each testing the expansive boundaries of painting.
