Current Exhibit: More Than Deliverables by Katie and Jonathan Childs - May 23 - Sept. 5

More Than Deliverables is a collection that spans both commissioned and personal work. The couple explains, “In the world of client work, everything has a purpose: a deadline, a target audience, a list of deliverables. But behind every assignment is a person, an artist, making creative choices, finding beauty in constraints, and bringing something human to the brief.”

This exhibition explores the balancing of their client’s goals with their own creative impulses, as they construct a body of images that represent “what it looks like to be a working artist. Not just creating for yourself, and not just creating for others, but building a body of work that lives in between.” (Jonathan and Katie Childs, artist statement)

UA-PTC will host a closing reception on Thursday, September 4, 5-7 pm.
