NEVER MET HER
A group exhibition curated by Alyssa Cordero + Jessica Barber
April 6 – May 4, 2018
Exhibiting artists are Courtney Alexander (Tampa, Florida), Anny Crane (Grand Rapids, Michigan), LUULS (Tampa, Florida), Jenal Dolson (Tampa, Florida), Christina Humphreys (San Francisco, California), Stine Leth (Aarhus, Denmark), Nora Maité Nieves (New York, New York), Jenn Ryann Miller (Tampa, Florida), Kaylin Price (Tampa, Florida), Lucha Rodriguez (Atlanta, Georgia), Kathryn Shriver (Montreal, Canada), and Anna Wallace (Greensboro, North Carolina).
CUNSTHAUS is pleased to present Never Met Her, curated by Jessica Barber and Alyssa Cordero. This group exhibition of all women artists explores the importance of taking up space through materiality and craft. Never Met Her features artists of varying backgrounds that emphasize the diversity and similarities of experiences. This exhibition goes beyond the canon of the traditional white space to create an unapologetically colorful experience that showcases these individual investigations of identity. Using an abundance of color, texture, and craft the show identifies the intimacy, agency, and power of these experiences. Never Met Her explores craft processes and creates a platform for an expanded conversation of their permanence within a contemporary art context. Additionally, musical accompaniment composed by LUULS will be played in the space. Through these non-diegetic sounds, there is a persistence in taking up space by breaking moments that would otherwise be silent in the gallery, while simultaneously working with the visual artworks.
Never Met Her will open at CUNSTHAUS on Friday, April 6th, in conjunction with First Friday Art in the Heights. The show runs until Friday, May 4th.
