SUMMARY:Fall River Open Studios @ Groundwork

He studied and worked with some of the best artists of a certain generation including Jay Boutin. His work has been exhibited nationally and somewhat internationally throughout his 30 year career\, including locally at Gallery X and the Groundwork Gallery in New Bedford. In a recent article his work was compared to that of Rembrandt\, to quote the writer\, “…Gleicher is no Rembrandt.” Mark’s work is an attempt to express an emotion that does not yet exist. \n  \n\nPaulina Fuenzalida-Guzmán\n \nPaulina is a versatile artist whose diverse interior design and journalism background has led her to pursue a career in fiber art. Born in Santiago\, Chile\, she moved to New Bedford\, Massachusetts\, in 2018 with her family to pursue an MFA\nin Fibers at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. Paulina{s earlier work focused on human rights violations during the collapse of democracy in Chile. Her current body of work reflects her interest in exploring the concept of identity and how both personal experiences and external circumstances shape it. \nIn recognition of her outstanding achievements\, Paulina was awarded the Surface Design Association’s Outstanding Student Award in 2019\, a prestigious award recognizing excellence in Fiber graduate and undergraduate students. Paulina is leading a collaborative textile project and organizing a travel exhibition with the minority Latino artists and New Bedford\, Massachusetts\, USA community. Her commitment to showcasing underrepresented voices and promoting diversity in the arts is a testament to her creative vision and dedication to social justice. \n  \nSonya Annette Priest\n \nMassachusetts-based artist\, Sonya Annette Priest has been honing her skills in painting\, for the last several years. Her top 3 mediums are oil paint\, digital media\, and charcoal. Whether she is using a brush on canvas or a stylus on a tablet\, her techniques are very similar. While attending college\, she became interested in painting\, studying alongside her mentor and friend Jason Chase. Sonya’s artistic abilities are well-rounded. When she is not painting\, she is making music or writing comedy. Outside of creating she enjoys spending lots of time with her dog Chunk. www.spfoxface.com \n  \nKendra Rosa\n \nKendra Rosa comes from a family of artists who instilled in her a passion for creativity that crosses the boundaries of artistic disciplines. While her current focus is photography\, Kendra has also pursued painting\, sculpting\, and graphic design. She earned her Associates in Fine Arts from Bristol Community College before attending the Massachusetts College of Art and Design in Boston where she earned her BA in Industrial Design.  \nBorn in Dartmouth Massachusetts\, and currently residing there\, Kendra has also lived and worked in Fall River throughout much of her adult life. The city serves as a strong connection to her Portuguese heritage which is reflected in some of her work. Kendra’s photography captures the beauty of South Coast New England\, her experiences traveling\, and her abstract view of the world. In 2020\, Kendra had her first child which has given her a new and wondrous perspective on life that is portrayed in some of her more recent work. \n  \n“Maki” Mark Carvalho\n \nAmerican Street Artist Mark Carvalho works with hand-cut stencils to create unique\, layered artwork that is constantly evolving. In his words:  “Over a decade of exploration in street art and stencils. My process has evolved from a sterile Photoshop style to an organic one stencil vision that was spawned from the necessity of a vandal. These photographs are the documentation of this journey.” We are revealing a brand-new mural by Maki on Friday. Come by to catch the first glimpse. https://www.bostonmaki.com/ \n  \nFor information about other open studios venues and events\, visit FRACC’s website.
