Relocations Work by Roswell Artist-in-Residence Marie Alarcón
January 15 – February 27, 2022 Artist Lecture and Opening Reception: Friday, January 14, 5:30 - 7 p.m.
Alarcón's work draws on personal and communal experiences of place and its production and the speculative cultural memory of displacement and diaspora. Working with light and shadow, reflection and projection, their materials consist of detritus, with industrial domestic materials treated as textiles, and videos that blur the distinction between the dream and the document.

February 12: Leave Your Mark How do you make art without a paintbrush, pencil or pens? How would you create an image with the random things in front of you? Sometimes manufactured tools just don't work for a certain project or because they are looking for a way make their own, distinct marks. Handmade tools allow for to a much wider and more unpredictable range of visual qualities. Come try out our alternatives and handmade tools, make your own and put your mark on the world... (or just on the paper supplied, please). See upcoming Second Saturday schedule »
