another day ok
We have all struggled with the new realities of COVID-19: daily life is riddled with disruptions and acceptance of uncertainty is the new norm. To that end, the artist community which is built on the premise of converging has had to reconcile with being dispersed.
Informed by the idea of creating a new sense of community in an unstable territory, all of us, an artist-run collective, was formed in Santa Clara County, California by four members of the MFA program at Stanford University and Karla Centeno, San Diego-based art advisor and curator. all of us seeks to create new avenues to replace those that have been closed, while confronting avenues that have been historically unavailable to artists even before the pandemic.
Another Day OK, is the inaugural exhibition of all of us and includes the works for founding members: Brett Amory, Gabriella Grill, Miguel Monroy, and Joshua Moreno. Although there are commonalities in the conceptual underpinnings of the works, the exhibition is bonded together by the artists’ common interests: building community, promoting experimentation and self-agency. In this way, the exhibition is the materialization of the objective, the core of all of us.
