      Department of Visual Arts Faculty Biennial

      January 24 – March 11

      This Biennial allows the Department of Visual Arts to highlight recent work by the art faculty. Each campus has a remarkable array of talented people who are devoted to mentoring their students. In class and out, these teachers are also practicing artists whose work is featured in galleries, museums and venues around the country. During the Biennial, we celebrate the UNG faculty as professional artists by exhibiting their recent work here at UNG for the university community to enjoy.


      Stacy Koffman: Transitions

      art by stacy koffman

      March 28 – April 22

      This exhibition by former UNG art professor Stacy Koffman is called “Transitions”. According to Stacy Koffman, change is inevitable and all is temporary. That is where she finds her mind and her art. Her influences range from the practice of Buddhism to Aboriginal Art, the Quilters of Gees Bend and many creative groups. She feels that trying to name and define specific “meaning” within abstract imagery is often very difficult, if not impossible. She has paintings in her studio where the meaning changes as she changes. She embraces this transitional quality of both the work and her mind. There is meaning to the process as her mind comes and goes through different spaces. Perhaps the meaning “is” the process! Letting the thoughts come and go as in a meditation practice. Trying not to hold on to any one idea or thought, and simply “be.” This is where her best work comes from and the results surprise and fill her up. It is as if she is the witness to her own process! Those are the best days in the studio.
