Artist Talk
with Craig Colman
Join Atlanta-based artist Craig Coleman for an intimate discussion of Closet Geometry, their immersive projection installation in Sliver Space. Coleman will explore the themes of identity, self-discovery, and vulnerability, discussing how their work reflects their journey as a non-binary and bisexual individual.
Through geometric projections, intimate imagery, and symbolic objects, Coleman will share how Closet Geometry evokes the complexity of self in a culturally restrictive environment. This talk offers insight into the personal and artistic processes behind the installation, followed by a Q&A.

A Cross Pollination Iron Art Event | by Allen Peterson and Friends
We kick off the new year with a performance art event with Allen Peterson and Friends in which crews of sculptors melt scrap iron and pour it into reusable molds to form bird-sized honeybee forms. Like puppets, these bees “fly” through the night in formations inspired by the dance-based language honeybees use to communicate and cooperate inside the hive.
