Hedreen Gallery

Sharing these words and images from : Over the last two months, SEEKING VISIONS FOR A BETTER WORLD has been slowly growing to fill the Hedreen gallery. Submissions are sincere, delightful, lighthearted, and sometimes puzzling! Seeing how different people respond to a prompt is fascinating. The purpose of this project was to spend time in a creative mindset thinking of a future worth having, both as individuals and as a society. This is difficult, and not something we are often asked to do. I’m grateful for all the time, thought, and energy put into this piece! If you’d like to see what people came up with, there is still time to see the show. SEEKING VISIONS FOR A BETTER WORLD will be open at the Hedreen gallery through Saturday, June 8th.

Have you seen all of the new additions to the walls at the gallery? There’s still time to check out Seeking Visions for a Better World…we’re open Weds-Sat from 1-6 pm until June 8, so make sure to stop by!

Tomorrow is the last day to make your submission to be included as a part of “Seeking Visions for a Better World”! Stop by the Gallery today until 6 pm or tomorrow from 1-6 pm to sketch in person or visit www.ryanfeddersen.com/seekingvisionsforabetterworld to upload your submission now 🕊️

Mark May 9th 4-7 PM on your calendar and come enjoy food, drinks, and music curated by . We are continuing to celebrate RYAN! Feddersen’s participatory exhibit and give folks the opportunity to submit their creative ideas before the May 25th deadline.

"Still Life" is opening THIS FRIDAY! There will be an Artist Talk at 4:30 with artists Philippe Hyojung Kim and Birthe Piontek with curator Arielle Simmons, followed by a reception with refreshments at 5:30 - 8. We hope to see you there!

In dialogue, the works of Philippe Hyojung Kim and Birthe Piontek underscore the essential impermanence of our existence. A similar disintegration of our nourishment acts as a gentle reminder of our own make-up: flesh will turn to dust. Piontek tells us the nature of the organic is transformation. Yet, Kim’s (Un) Earthly Delights are wrapped in plastic, prepared to outlast the dinner and the diner. Seemingly, meaningful change may only occur alongside temporality. In this moment of shared instability, embrace the state of flux. It's here we find our humanity.

Join us for an Artist Talk with Rohena Alam Khan!

Seattle University's Hedreen Gallery | 5 pm, Thursday, March 9th

Light refreshments provided after the Talk

Shaped by Bangladesh’s Liberation War in 1971, Rohena Alam Khan creates as her father once raised his rifle, each layer a battle cry for freedom. War brought her into being, as it brought her parents together. Now a woman of modern Bangladesh and the world, she engages the revolutionary spirit she was endowed with at birth. In this solo exhibition, Alam Khan worships the brave women who came before, sharing her own inspired journey. Art is both refuge and weapon in her fight against oppression.
