The Ulrich Museum of Art invites you to be part of multidisciplinary contemporary artist Abhidnya Ghuge’s monumental site-responsive art work, which will be on view in the museum’s Polk/Wilson Gallery, July 22 through Dec. 6.
Drop by the Ulrich any time between 1 to 4 p.m. Friday, July 11 and work alongside Ghuge to help bring this project to life. By participating, you will be contributing directly to a dynamic work of art and an experience that fosters community connection. This event is free and everyone is welcome. No preregistration is required.
Ghuge’s work explores themes of community, belonging, identity, and transformation. Known for her intricate and expansive installations, Ghuge’s piece at the Ulrich will be made from over 14,000 woodblock-printed paper plates rolled and placed into a metal infrastructure. As an artist who enjoys the shared experience of creation, Ghuge encourages others join her in the rolling and placing of her woodblock prints. This communal hands-on process reflects the spirit of Ghuge’s work: collaborative, meaningful, and rooted in shared experience.
