The John Michael Kohler Arts Center will be unveiling a brand new exhibit later this month.
“Guadalupe Maravilla with Emery Blagdon: The star exploding in the body” will open on May 30th, bringing together the work of two artists for the first time.
The exhibition showcases Blagdon and Maravilla’s exploratory and multisensory approaches to healing through the creation of “healing machines” in response to their own lives being touched by cancer.
Laura Bickford, Associate Curator at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, says the exhibit “turns the gallery into a site of activation rather than observation. Through sound, vibration, and the interspersed energies of Maravilla’s ‘Disease Throwers’ and Blagdon’s Healing Machine, visitors are invited to experience how these artists envision their works not simply as objects to be viewed, but as forces to be used in the pursuit of restoration and care.”
