"Until Further Notice" exhibit opens at North Campus Gallery
The San Jacinto College North Campus Gallery presents "Until Further Notice," an exhibit by art and design adjunct faculty member and interdisciplinary artist Jennifer Marion. The exhibit is on view from Thursday, Sept. 3 to Thursday, Oct. 1 in the Grant Fine Arts Center.
Through photography, video, textiles, sound, and installation, Marion explores generational trauma, motherhood, and the silencing of the female voice. Drawing from the experience of being a mother and the everyday spaces of cars and homes, her work considers the body as "a vessel of care, exhaustion, endurance." Everyday materials, including party supplies, receipts, and magazine clippings, become tools for transforming personal experience into something shared.
Marion, who teaches photography and digital media at the North Campus, holds an Master of Fine Arts from the University of Houston and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Lamar University.
An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 3, at the North Campus Gallery in the Grant Fine Arts Center (N1). The exhibit is free and open to the public.
Artist Statement:
Until Further Notice
This is a record of the in-between – archived in phone-camera images, looped in 1990s-2000s cartoon roadways, tufted into monk's cloth where soft fibers absorb the weight of frustration.
Punch the weave, hold the form, translate the pressure into something that stays. The car, the home, the body – each a vessel of care, exhaustion, endurance.
You are not just looking.
You are placed here.
Passenger, witness, weight-bearer.
