UC Davis MFA FIRST YEAR STUDENT EXHIBIT
June 9– July 5, 2009, Reception: June
12, 7-9 PM
The Pence Gallery will again display the cutting
edge art of first year
graduate students from UC Davis’ Master of Fine Arts program.
The exhibit includes photographic works by Aleksander Bohnak, Jingjing
Gong and Christopher Woodcock. Whereas Jingjing
Gong is interested in drawing attention to the drastic change being
experienced by Chinese families, and stages actors in the real
environments of China’s abandoned apartment complexes, Aleksander
Bohnak uses photography as the final product in his work. Aleksander
first builds an installation including sculpture, creates a performance,
and finally documents it via photography. Woodcock’s photographs
are captured using large format cameras, to create fabricated liminal
spaces of natural and architectural environments.
Whereas, on a three-dimensional plane,
sculpture by Traci Horgen and Linda Miller questions basic human
nature, and the correlation
of emotions with chemical reactions within the human body. In contrast,
Robert Machoian’s print work explores the individual’s
relationship to objects, other people and the effect of these interactions.
Also, mixed media drawings by Joshua Pelletier take a deep look
inside the human psyche and express irrationality, fear, love and
humor. Johanna Barron’s installation focuses on material
culture, illusions of space, and boundaries. And lastly, Hyung-Mo
Chu’s installation works explore distant places, whether
they are real or imagined.
