Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, and for the next 22 years, New York became her home. In 2016, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries, whether tangible or not.

Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, and for the next 22 years, New York became her home. In 2016, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries, whether tangible or not.

Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, and for the next 22 years, New York became her home. In 2016, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries, whether tangible or not.

Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, and for the next 22 years, New York became her home. In 2016, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries, whether tangible or not.

Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, and for the next 22 years, New York became her home. In 2016, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries, whether tangible or not.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

Luke Song’s Detroit millinery was frequented by the late great Aretha Franklin. Franklin wore her much-discussed Mr. Song hat for her performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Mr. Song Millinery has been in business since 1982, making hats for church, the Kentucky Derby, Ascot, and other special occasions. Hats by Mr. Song Millinery are also on display at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, several African-American Museums, and the Smithsonian. “So consider yourself a part of history if you decide to wear one." – Pamela Thomas-Graham, “The Best Makers of Couture Millinery in the World”, 8/13/2019.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.

In 2017 Leslie Sobel, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory, Canada, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine, remote, beautiful, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting, monotype, photography, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places.

Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness, quirkiness, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests, sail on lakes, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere, his boldly colored animal explorers, tourists, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.

In her early career, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute, Chicago. 12 years into her current work, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic, assertive and joyful, discerning and full of possibility.
