Jacob Wachal - Nagdamgo Ako Ani
​Mar 28 - May 16
Nagdamgo Ako Ani is a visual record of my continual longing for a sense of belonging as a "third culture kid" in the American South. I am interested in reconciling an innate desire for visual storytelling as a mode of preserving the cultural traditions and values of my family while operating within a societal context that has been marred by the ideals of Western colonialism and imperialism. Growing up exposed to violent and erotic photographic portrayals of Filipinos housed in archives such as those found in the Library of Congress, I seek to subvert the traditional expectations of the medium to portray a vision, both authentic and romanticized, of the lived experiences of the third culture kid. This is a kind of bittersweet and cathartic upbringing, defined by the act of creating a home and pouring love into a place that can be both saccharine and, at times, hostile to your existence.

​Axis Mundi
Mar 28 - May 16​
The axis mundi is broadly defined as a line of connection between heavily and earthly realms.  Stretching from the hidden depths of the earth’s interior, across the horizon and into the sky above, the axis mundi encompasses a triad of distinct strata that share a common thread: their existence as cosmic realities manifesting spiritual wonder. 

While each of us freely roams the full breadth of this cosmic territory, we also stake our respective claims in diverse and unique ways.  It is this difference we seek to celebrate as way of expressing our shared belief in the endless vantage points for seeing and being in the world.

Connie Tucker - WaterWorks
Apr 4 - May 23​
The beauty and richness of flowers, landscapes, and still-life compositions have always captivated me, providing a wealth of subjects to explore artistically. This exhibit presents a range of watercolor techniques that reflect my dedication to these themes. I believe my passion for such subjects is integral to creating compelling compositions, as I experiment with various materials, theoretical approaches, and techniques, from spontaneous gestures to intricate detail.​

My artistic journey often involves an exploration of my immediate surroundings and neighboring regions, capturing subtle changes in the landscape. In addition, I arrange still-life compositions of objects with personal significance, carefully adjusting their arrangement and lighting to craft compositions of depth and intrigue. Through this process, I aspire to create watercolors that convey an atmosphere of wonder and spirit, inviting viewers to share in the sense of discovery that fuels my work.

Robby Varillas - The Untold Benefits of Brushing and Flossing
Apr 4 - May 23
​The Untold Benefits of Brushing and Flossing shows you just how different your life could be if you brushed twice a day and flossed once a day. This is a show about everything that happens just outside of view and just outside of reach. It is a series of animations and zines that explore analogue and digital interaction through dreamlike vignettes that emphasize atmosphere, texture, and experimental techniques.

Tony Wavy - Matters of the Heart
Apr 4 - May 23
They say home is where the heart is. Welcome to my humble abode. As an artist, I have often found myself entangled in the pursuit of creating masterpieces that conform to specific niches or cater to particular audiences, whether for commercial success or recognition. This endeavor sometimes leads to producing works that do not resonate with my true self. Reflecting on my upbringing, I recall a time devoid of constraints—just me and the freedom to create whatever my heart desired. I believe that this unbridled creativity represents the purest form of artistic expression, where creation stems from the heart, unburdened by the mind’s overthinking. The heart accomplishes what the mind cannot fathom.
