Julie McCreedy

In Julie McCreedy’s Emotional Resolve, interconnecting themes merge in and out of multiple two- dimensional works. Influenced by a single letter written by McCreedy’s deceased son, she documents memories, dreams, and correspondence concerning loss, love, and trauma. To navigate the space, a suspended canvas encourages the viewer to engage multiple dimensions. At the core, the work examines her son's Opioid Use Disorder and the innate need for solace and redirection.

Michelle Hall

Investigating and challenging binding forces of social perception around recovery practices, Michelle Hall employs use of symbolic gesture through this series of works. Her research deals with lived experience, aftermath and processes of recovery through reconstructive offerings that address the intersections of how we learn and how we may achieve new iterations of collective and individual empowerment.
