An artist’s reception will take place on Friday, March 1, from 5-7 p.m. The exhibition and reception will be held at the Kresge Foundation Art Gallery inside the Riethmiller Blackman Art Building. The gallery is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Admission is free and open to the public.
Zoë Couvillion is a visual arts technician and adjunct instructor at the University of North Texas. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2019 at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and her Master of Fine Arts in 2022 at Northern Illinois University. Her concentration for both degrees was printmaking, and her work centers on stone lithography, reductive relief printing, papier-collé and blind emboss.
Couvillion’s research involves the dynamics between individuality and connectivity in both grief and celebration. Her recent work compares personal experiences to those shared in the community. Couvillion finds a connection in the overlap. She turns to printmaking for its ability to exemplify both pattern and connectivity.
