Eleana Grace Daniel is an American oil painter working between abstraction and representation through themes of landscape. She is a recent graduate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, earning her MFA in May of 2024. Eleana’s work is a negotiation of control and an exercise in trust. Abstraction is necessary to her practice now because it is flexible; it allows for the unnamable and ineffable. Through painting, she is looking for alternatives.
Emily Schroeder Willis is an artist known for her tactile ceramic vessels. She uses the process of creating to help her reconcile and understand the world around her. Using the vessel as a metaphor, it holds many things for her such as mythical stories, personal experiences, questions, and the hope and fear of what is to come. She is interested in the discord and tension that can be generated by peculiarities coming together in a singular object.
