SUMMARY:Kat Spears: Surface Lore
DESCRIPTION:Kat Spears: Surface Lore is on view in the Upper Traylor Gallery from January 21 through March 13\, 2026. Kat Spears will give an artist talk on Wednesday\, March 11\, at 5:00pm in the Upper Traylor Gallery in the Rogers-Traylor Art Building. All are welcome; no RSVP required. Kat will also lead a workshop focusing on monotype printmaking techniques on Wednesday\, March 11\, at 7:00pm. Advanced registration for this workshop is required. The workshop is free and all supplies are provided\, but space is limited. For more information\, visit our Events page. \nThe paintings in Surface Lore hide many layers of imagery gleaned from observation\, sketches\, personal photo archives\, art history\, memory and imagination. Their surfaces have been metamorphosing for the past three years\, during which time they have changed to reflect the artist’s changing preoccupations and favorite icons. The surface quality and imagery visible at last has been guided by the unexpected textures and colors that appeared in this process of layering\, painting-over\, and un-painting. \nKat Spears is an artist originally from Kentucky. Their studio practice is founded largely in an inexhaustible love for observational and figural drawing and painting. Parallel to this practice\, they engage with many modes of image-making\, as well as installation\, sculpture\, poetry\, music\, and sound. They graduated from Berea College in 2014 (Studio Art\, Art History\, Spanish)\, and completed a Masters of Fine Arts from Indiana University Bloomington in 2022. They have been teaching drawing and painting courses since 2019 and currently serve as the Visiting Professor of Painting and Drawing at Berea College.

SUMMARY:Sara Torgison: Spanned Separations
DESCRIPTION:Sara Torgison: Spanned Separations is on view in the Lower Traylor Gallery from January 28 through March 20\, 2026. Sara Torgison will give an artist talk at the exhibition’s closing reception on Friday\, March 20\, at 12:00pm in the Lower Traylor Gallery in the Rogers-Traylor Art Building. All are welcome; no RSVP required. For more information\, visit our Events page. \nIn this visiting artist exhibition\, Sara Torgison presents a collection of recent works that explore the deceptions and detachment of anthropocentric culture\, while imagining repair to our relationship with ecosystems and the more-than-human world. Animal figures play at the edges of human\, while humans merge with experimental ecologies. Each work troubles the distance between us and the animals and environments we exploit for our wellness and comfort. During an era of mass extinctions and climate collapse\, Torgison’s work complicates binary narratives by dwelling in the margins of material and symbolic corporealities of human and non-human animals. \nSara Torgison is an interdisciplinary artist with a focus in ceramics and fiber art. She received an MFA from the University of Cincinnati Department of Design\, Architecture\, Art and Planning and a BFA (ceramics) and BS (Zoology) from Cal Poly Humboldt in Arcata\, California. Her work often blends media\, extending finite and fragile surfaces to emphasize and inhabit marginal spaces. Sara is currently Visiting Ceramics Faculty at Miami University in Oxford\, Ohio\, and works as a preparator at the Weston Art Gallery in Cincinnati.

SUMMARY:Doris After Dark! February 25\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a new monthly late-night programming series at the Doris Ulmann Galleries that brings creativity and community together in fun new ways! The February event lineup starts at 5:00pm with a gallery talk hosted by Director and Curator\, Dr. Kelsey Frady Malone\, highlighting Our Land\, a painting by African-American artist Charles W. White that is on loan to the Doris Ulmann Galleries for the 2025-2026 academic year. \nThe talk will be followed by a portrait painting workshop at 7:00 inspired by White’s painting. Workshop participants will explore how visual elements and stylistic choices can communicate a subject’s values and character (such as strength\, resilience\, power\, tenderness\, and empathy) and then practice those skills by creating their own self-portrait with intention and agency – showcasing the facets of themselves that they value the most. Pizza will be served between the gallery talk and the workshop\, so you can plan to hang at the Galleries all night! \nNo art expertise is required; all workshop supplies are provided. Space is limited in the workshop\, so advanced registration is required. Email malonek2@berea.edu to reserve your spot. These events are free and open to the public and guests of all ages. Doris After Dark is made possible in part by grant funding provided by The Art Bridges Foundation.
