For her upcom­ing solo exhi­bi­tion FAMILY DINNER at the Penland Gallery, Vivian Chin further devel­ops the body of work she began in Passages (those that carried us), expand­ing the series of sculp­tural vessels to incor­po­rate narra­tive marquetry, explor­ing conjoined vessels, larger-scale, and revolv­ing vessels with inte­rior rotat­ing imagery. The marquetry will explore the artist’s narra­tive via child­hood memo­ries, portraits, and food from Chiu’s expan­sive family dinners in Hong Kong.

The Longest Distance Between Two Points, a solo exhibition by Katie Hudnall

Museum for Art in Wood

Katie Hudnall makes tools, furni­ture, and objects that are perfectly suited for a pecu­liar world. The first museum-orga­nized solo presen­ta­tion of Hudnall’s unique and capti­vat­ing work, The Longest Distance between Two Points reveals a rare glimpse into the artist’s rich inner world. Here, the absurd and mechan­i­cally improb­a­ble merges with fine wood­work­ing and salvaged wood mate­ri­als to bring mech­a­nisms and struc­tures to life and action.

Exhi­bi­tion dates: March 7 — July 202025
