An Emotional Archive + Made in Heaven: Closing Reception
@ The Martin
2500 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Opening Friday, June 16th, from 6PM - 9PM
Two solo shows by powerful Chicago artists have graced our walls for the past several weeks and we’re excited for one final showing and celebration of their exhibitions.
Join us on June 16th between 6-9pm for your last chance to collect their artwork and experience the exhibitions together.
Armando Román is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in the Midwest. He received his BFA in Studio Arts from Denison University and his MFA in Visual Arts from The Ohio State University. His drawings traverse themes of religion, homosexuality, community, and the metaphysical self.
Dennissa Young is a Chicago-based, Native New Mexican, relational artist and curator. With projects focusing on friendship, connection and collaborating, she has exhibited all across the US (Rock Hill, Boston and Charlotte to name a few), and internationally (from Bogota, Colombia to Istanbul, Turkey). She has been featured in numerous publications, including CLTure, Broadening the Narrative Podcast, York County Magazine, and the Art | Tea Podcast. Dennissa’s work strives to foster intimacy, radical softness, and capture the spiritual journey of humanity. Her artistic practice creates time, space and honesty, where audience members can engage and participate however they see fit. In 2022, Dennissa has creatively contributed to The Martin, Belong Gallery and The Franklin Outdoor, and started a podcast with her art bestie about the art world, friendship and everything in between. Check out Due to the Current Situation on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google or Amazon. You can find her work at dennissayoung.com.
A card-only bar will be available for purchase! The Martin has one step up into the gallery for entrance – if you are a guest who requires no steps to enter, please enter in through Split-Rail and into the gallery.
