Cynthia MacCollum
Cynthia MacCollum is a painter, printmaker, and photographer who lives and works in New Canaan, CT. Her work has been shown online with ODETTA, NYC, and in person at the Center for Contemporary Printmaking in Norwalk, CT; Elisa Contemporary Art, NY; First Street Gallery in New York; The Kellogg Gallery at Cal Poly Pomona, Blue Print Gallery in Dallas, Panopticon Gallery in Boston, and internationally in Cadaques, Spain, the UK, France and Hong Kong. In June, 2013, Cynthia’s work was selected by curator Donald Kuspit, one of 32 pieces out of thousands of submissions, to be part of the First Street Gallery National Juried Exhibit in New York City. As a child, MacCollum spent countless hours out of doors, often near the creek in the ravine behind her home. This early connection to nature instilled a reverence for the natural world that pervades all of her work. MacCollum’s daily habit of walking through the nature preserve near her home has informed and inspired much of her work over the last several years. MacCollum is a member of New Canaan’s Silvermine Guild, the Center for Contemporary Printmaking, and Odetta Digital. A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis with a major in Art History and a minor in Fine Art, she has continued her studies at the Center for Contemporary Printmaking, and through monthly critiques with the CritLab. Artist Residencies for three summers, at the Skopelos Foundation for the Arts in Skopelos, Greece, have deepened MacCollum’s interest in the intersection of nature and art, and of painting, printmaking, and alternative processes. In addition to private collections, her work can be found in the Fine Art Collection of the Montefiore Health System and Memorial Sloane Kettering.

- Art Deck (2022) by artist dancer writer Katelyn Halpern; 31 color photo printsLocated in Jersey City, NJ"disaster [place] Art Deck" (2022) 31 full color prints, numbered in roman numerals on the back sides, printed on 130 lb cougar finish cardstock; 6x4" cards printed with an image of each work of disaster [place] in a hand scripted envelope Deck is 6 x 4 x 5/8" Digital Print / Text / Minimalism and Contemporary Minimalist / Feminist Art and Contemporary Feminist / Artists’ Books ABOUT THIS PROJECT The "disaster [place]" installation (containing 29 charcoal works on paper) began as an itch to scrawl. “I wanted the feeling of going big and free and loose,” says Halpern. “I rolled out some craft paper on the kitchen floor, got on my knees, swept across the giant page with a screeching piece of charcoal. The sound was horrible… [but] that sweep became the first piece of disaster [place], the large brown sheet muse-hollering what I would like to say about this place is.” Over the next two years, 2019-2021, Halpern returned to the project, probing themes of multiplicity and spaces of possibility, as well as loss, softness, and localized disaster. The text-based installation grew slowly, with the addition of one word or phrase at a time, until a network of meaning emerged. An intuitive experience from beginning to end, the artist discovered the work to be complete and ready for presentation one day last August. A year later, the work is primed for its first public presentation. The development of the work received support from Arts On Site R&R in Kerhonkson, NY. The 31 card art deck serves as a memento. Halpern’s previous installations include Heartstrung: An Immersion in the Emotional Body, created with Talita Cabral for SMUSH Gallery in Fall 2018, and The Labyrinth for Reflection & the Generation of Love [No. 9], a public artwork commissioned by Jersey City’s Exchange Place Alliance in 2019 as part of their public art program. Halpern has previously shown small works at Deep Space Gallery in The Gigantic Miniature Show (Winter 2021), Mother Shipment (Spring 2021), and More Minis (Winter 2020). ABOUT THE ARTIST Katelyn Halpern is a Jersey City-based multidisciplinary artist originally from Austin, Texas. Her eclectic body of work ranges from life-sized installations to cut-and-tape zines to concert dance, and her work is frequently constructed around the idea clusters of interiority/intimacy/reflection, strangeness/humor/freedom, and the lived experience of moving through the world in a feminine body. Her creative work has received support from Dance New Jersey, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center’s Jersey (New!) Moves Fellowship, the Exchange Place Alliance, The Iron Factory, chashama, the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts, Avaloch Farm, Arts On Site Residency & Retreat, and the 2017 Choreographers in Residence Program (CHIRP) at Jersey City’s County Prep High School, among others. Her work has been presented throughout New York and New Jersey at venues including BAM Fisher, NJPAC, the Knockdown Center, White Eagle Hall, Deep Space Gallery, Eonta Space, and the J Owen...Category
