Something from Something
curated by Harvee White
June 5 - August 8

Through an intersectional and contemporary lens, Lewis Foster, N. Masani Landfair, and Jas Jermaine Turk, explore cultural heritage and identity through the analog act of cutting and pasting. Though each artist has their own approach and reasons for choosing collage as their platform, the gravitation toward exploration of identity through found materials is foundational.

Curated by Harvee White, Something from Something not only serves as an exploration of intersectional Black identity in collage, but also attempts to answer why collage has positioned itself as a frontrunner medium for this exploration in general.

While It Lasts
Works by Edna Martinez
June 5 - July 2

Known as a tool for creating temporary art, the Etch A Sketch is reimagined by artist Edna Martinez as a medium for fine art and political resistance. Through preserved portraits, still lifes, and symbols of marginalized identities and rights under threat, this exhibit transforms nostalgia into a unique act of protest and art appreciation.

Sonder: Spring Intern Exhibition
Works by Tesslyn Armstrong
MICRO gallery
May 1-23

Artist Statement: Sonder entails the sudden realization that every person has a life as unique and complicated as your own; a life that includes a similar, if not equal, depth of human emotion and personal experience. The sudden realization that you’re only one of the many individuals who equally share the experience of life. Give empathy to your neighbor, one who you might not understand but who is also living life for the first time too.

WestoHUE: The monochromatic experience
April 3-May 23

Every year, Westobou transforms the gallery into a monochromatic experience featuring the works of 10 artists. This year’s hue is GREEN!

Featured Artist:
APRIL HENRY KING

Bio: April Henry King is an Augusta native and self-taught artist. After her studies in Communication at Augusta University, she went on to start her own art business creating custom pieces for her clients, anything from pet portraits to large, outdoor murals around the downtown area. In 2024, she was voted Best of Augusta - Best Visual Artist and in 2020, The Miller Theater dedicated a seat with her name on it as a thank you for her involvement in the revitalization of downtown. King is enthusiastic about her hometown and dedicated to helping Augusta evolve and flourish through color and community. She uses her bright strokes and energetic palette in hopes that her art will evoke emotion from the viewer. King wants you to feel as much pride and appreciation for our city as she does after seeing our town through her bright, fun perspective.

Featured Artist:
LEONARD “PORKCHOP” ZIMMERMAN

Bio: Adopting the nom-de-brush “Porkchop,” Augusta, GA artist Leonard Zimmerman has exhibited throughout the Southern United States and created imaginative murals for sites including the Augusta Water Works, Children’s Hospital of Georgia, and the Augusta-Richmond County Public Library Headquarters Branch. A 2010 Best Local Artist honoree, he later gave a TEDx talk on “happiness,” and completed the award-winning documentary Happy: A Small Film with a Big Smile. He has received honors from the Greater Augusta Arts Council, the Porter Fleming Foundation, and the Georgia Art Education Association. From clandestine Ellis Street murals to a dream of painting a giant HAPPY smile on a water tower, Porkchop continues to spread joy while quietly crafting new friends in secret… The robots are coming.

Artist Statement: About my piece…. I know what i want to paint, but i’m concerned it is so obvious and silly that someone else might be doing it….
