Come join us for an in-person studio visit with Jaclyn Jacunski and Peter Miles Bergman!
Jaclyn Jacunski and Peter Miles Bergman have been friends for 20 years. Both have a practice rooted in print media and social practice that have branched into very separate spheres in their shared studio. Jaclyn has an interdisciplinary exhibition, curatorial, and activist practice centered on political controversies that surround land, communities, and acts of resistance. Known for using materials scavenged from building sites—often in gentrifying neighborhoods—Jacunski reveals how neighborhood landscapes become expressions of lived experiences resisting powerful cultural systems such as gentrification, environmental threats, and state violence.
Peter has a diverse, art-centered publishing and visual communication practice, ranging from publishing books and zines of his own authorship that examine humorous and slyly political interventions in space that unfold over time, publishing the work of other artists and designing work for clients of Quimby’s Ink, a division of Quimby’s Bookstore.
