We’re installing today! 🎁 Join us Friday, May 9th, 6:30 - 8:30 pm for the opening of “I Happen to Be Rock”, a group exhibition by the 2026 Cornell MFA candidates in Creative Visual Arts.

“I Happen to be Rock” is a culminating exhibition featuring the work of Marissa Cote, Michael Morgan, Sheila Novak, Onome Olotu, Faye Pamintuan, Carla Rangel García, and Yun Hsiang Wang. Across painting, sculpture, printmaking, installation, writing, and expanded material practices, the exhibition gathers seven artists whose work insists on persistence, relation, transformation, and becoming. The title suggests contingency and endurance; something accidental and elemental, arrived at and borne through. It evokes a condition of having taken form under pressure, of becoming matter, presence, witness.

Featuring works by graduating artists in Cornell University’s M.F.A. in Creative Visual Arts, I Happen to Be Rock brings together distinct practices that remain in dynamic conversation with one another. Material curiosity and conceptual range shape the exhibition, as the artists move through questions of identity, collectivity, visibility, repair, q***r construction, memory, and the horizon of what might still be possible. The exhibition is funded in part by Cornell Council for the Arts.

Final Weekend to check out The Fourth Wall, a solo exhibition of work by in the Skirt! curated by OyG co-director . Come check it out Saturday and Sunday from 1-6pm 📚

The Fourth Wall depicts the back sides of domestic furniture with spectacular, hand-drawn, lifelike accuracy. Made from densely-drawn color pencil and paper, these sculptural pieces bear an uncanny likeness to real objects. We see the backboards of an enormous cabinet with uneven screws, the uncovered battery on the back of a wall clock, and the white label residue on a dresser—all hand drawn with stunning realism.

Lee transforms The Skirt into a peripheral walkway around a room we can only look into from outside, viewing the backs of each furniture piece as we maneuver the space. Informed by her experiences as a foreigner, artist, and mother, Lee’s work makes visible that experience of marginal alienation from the comfort of a home—a place of belonging.

The pieces themselves are vibrantly textured and remarkable for their attendance to detail. Enormous backing boards of large furniture fill the space; the hand-drawn wood grains and size convey a sense of immediacy. Layers of dense pencil strokes create all of these surfaces, serving not only as a faithful rendering of texture but also as a bearing witness to the time spent living in this liminal zone, looking in. These meticulous depictions of texture, rendered by countless pencil strokes, reveal a life lived in an uncertain periphery. Lee simultaneously transforms The Skirt into both a negated auxiliary space, and also into its own domestic interior, lending a deeply empathic view of the experience of living on the outside.
