Interwoven Spaces will run at Rudolph Blume Fine Art / ArtScan Gallery from April 14th - April 28th with an opening reception on April 14th from 6pm to 9pm and closing reception on April 28th from 11am to 2pm.

Interwoven Spaces is curated by Jason Dibley, Collections Manager of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and brings together the diverse work of the BFA 2018 Candidates. Artists include: Natalia Barrientos, Wesley Burns, Kristen Coleman, Matt Flora, Jessica González, Gabriel Guerrero, Aisha Lakhani, Daniel Nolan, Dawn Ohmer, and Arely Peña.

Dedicated to exploring ideas surrounding identity, community, memory, and social and political constructs, these artists work in a wide breadth of approaches and mediums to provoke and suggest meanings beyond immediate association. By delving into a variety of artistic practices including photography, video, alternative processes, installation, painting, and sculpture, the artists engage in conversation with each other, interweaving pieces from each diverse background to draw audiences into a space of their own.

Rudolph Blume Fine Art / ArtScan Gallery is proud to introduce the UHPDM Class of 2018 for their BFA exhibition as part of FotoFest 2018.
