Under a Clear Blue Sky with Lucy Holtsnider
<p class="preFade fadeIn">Under a Clear Blue Sky is a collection of collages and prints answering the question “<strong>What could Suncor be?</strong>”. The Suncor oil refinery in Commerce City has been a known source of pollution and severe adverse health effects for decades. These works explore how the site could be transformed into something new that serves the interests of the surrounding neighborhoods while contributing to Colorado’s ambitious goal to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The theme is inspired by activists like printmaker Favianna Rodriguez and marine biologist Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson who both use their platforms to creatively envision a healthier and more sustainable future. </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn" data-rte-preserve-empty="true"> </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">What lies ahead? Reimagining the world. Only that. </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn"> – Arundhati Roy</p> <p class="preFade fadeIn" data-rte-preserve-empty="true"> </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">Lucy's studio practice begins with sensory observation of her surroundings in metro Denver. The colors and textures that make up where she lives and recreate slowly accrue in my mind, creating a cache of ideas to draw from in her studio. She transcribes her observations by printing vibrant monotypes on her 60 year old letterpress and, more recently, manipulating clay and wood into abstract shapes. She then cuts, layers, arranges, and rearranges these materials into vibrant compositions. The process often involves a treasure hunt for the perfect snippet to complete a collage, and sometimes she deconstruct older works and incorporates the components into new pieces. </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">The process is not unlike that of a city adapting as its population grows. Just like her collages, the composition of the built environment and the people living in it are also in constant flux. Fortunately here in Denver there is a fascinating history of flexibility in city planning and growth. Two industrial sites; the Rocky Mountain Arsenal and Stapleton Airport, were carefully repurposed around the turn of the last century. The Arsenal was a chemical weapons manufacturing facility where horrific toxins like napalm and sarin gas were created. After operations ceased in 1982 the extreme levels of pollution earned it designation as a superfund site, meaning it is known to the EPA to pose a major risk to human health. After a decade of clean up the 27 square miles were turned into a wildlife refuge where wild bison roam just a few miles from downtown Denver. </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">Stapleton Airport is another example of creatively reimagining infrastructure in Denver. Stapleton was crucial to putting Denver on the map as a hub of commerce in the west in the 50’s and 60’s, but city planners could see far in advance that the airport would eventually be outgrown. In 1989, Stapleton was operating at full capacity and DIA was six years away from completion. But that didn’t deter city planners from creating an ambitious plan for redeveloping the site into neighborhoods after it was no longer in use. Denver broke ground on Central Park in 2001 and it’s now one of the largest and most successful urban redevelopment projects in the United States.</p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">These two examples show how infrastructure in our city that has outlived its usefulness can be creatively repurposed. A third site is prime for this same approach: the Suncor refinery. Though the refinery is integrated into our current infrastructure and economy, it’s time to start planning for what comes next. Our state aims for 100% net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and relocating, downsizing, or eliminating the refinery altogether will be essential to meeting these goals and to improving air quality and health for all Denver residents. </p> <p class="preFade fadeIn">ArtLab Interns proposed a variety of solutions for the site including an animal sanctuary, an arts complex, and a sunflower themed amusement park, among others. Luy chose to focus on affordable housing because she was fortunate to purchase an income-restricted townhouse in the summer of 2024. The two maps on the wall show a real street pattern in a Central Park neighborhood, and then an imaginary street pattern in a future housing development on the Suncor site. The converging housing, affordability, and climate crises facing our state deserve the type of drastic action that would be needed to make a change to Suncor. Lucy hopes this exhibition can serve as a catalyst for that type of planning and action.</p> <p class="preFade fadeIn"><a href= "https://www.lucyholtsnider.com">www.lucyholtsnider.com</a></p> <p class="preFade fadeIn"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/lucy.holtsnider/">@lucy.holtsnider</a></p>

Episode 17: On the Table with Eileen Roscina
<p>Eileen Roscina is an artist, experimental filmmaker and naturalist from Denver, Colorado. She holds an MFA in Art Practices from the University of Colorado, Boulder and a BFA from Emerson College in Boston, MA, and also trained at the School of Botanical Art and Illustration in Denver. Through biomimicry and the study of biophilia, her work examines human’s spiritual and social (dis)connection with nature, and seeks to raise questions about realizing a radically different metaphoric mapping of time, space and our place in the world. Roscina works in 16mm film and animation, sculpture/installation with natural materials and alternative photographic processes. She has exhibited film internationally, and visual art at Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Denver Art Museum, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (Boulder), Museo de Las Americas (Denver), Vicki Myhren Gallery at University of Denver (Denver), Center for Visual Art (Denver), Arvada Center (Arvada), Dairy Art Center (Boulder), University of Colorado (Boulder), Salina Art Center (Kansas) and was the 2019 Resident Artist for the National Western Stock Show, a 2018-2020 resident at RedLine Contemporary Art Center, Denver.

Episode 16: How Strange it is to be Anything at All with Lexy Ho-Tai
<p dir="ltr">Lexy Ho-Tai is an artist, educator and goopey human. Her practice is expansive and ever-changing, but often rooted in exploring human connection, otherness, our inner-child and world-building through craft, play, DIY, monsters and collaboration. Recent projects include: creating a collaborative giant textile cuddle monster with 500+ elementary students, building and burning a wearable heartbreak monster, and making her first stop motion animation featuring tiny puppets of her family. She’s currently dreaming of a surrealist All-Ages Kids TV show with puppetry, masking and more (stay tuned!). She’s bad at small talk, convinced that everything is made up, and uses art to explore alternative ways of being in this world. </p> <p dir="ltr">Lexy’s a core member of eco-theater groups Superhero Clubhouse and Agile Rascal Bicycle Touring Theatre. She’s had solo shows at the Museum of Arts and Design and Flux Factory, and has also shown work at the Abrons Art Center, The Highline, and the Museum of Modern Art. Past residencies include Watermill Center, Flux Factory, ARoS Museum, Everglades National Park, Art Farm, Elsewhere Museum, Wassaic Project, Vermont Studio Center and the Museum of Arts and Design, where she was a Van Lier Fellow. Recently, she was a part of the American Craft Council’s Emerging Artist Cohort.</p> <p class="p1">Her exhibition with PlatteForum, “<em>How Strange it is to be Anything at All</em>” is lovingly crafted, and features slightly existential soft sculptures, puppets, wearables, and drawings which come to life in a new stop-motion animation and installation. Throughout Lexy’s residency, she has worked with our ArtLab interns to create mixed media wearable monster costumes and explored the following questions: </p> <p class="p1"><em>What does it mean to be human? How can we free our minds? How can our bodies be home?</em> </p> <p class="p1">Lexy invites viewers into a space where you can rest, create, and be amongst the many beings there, which are extensions and mirrors of ourselves. After all, everything is made up and we can be anything at all. So, loosen up your human suits – all parts of you are welcome here. This is a soft place to land.</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.lexymakesthings.com">www.lexymakesthings.com</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Blog: <a href= "https://lexymakesthings.substack.com">https://lexymakesthings.substack.com</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: @<a href= "https://www.instagram.com/lexymakesthings">lexymakesthings</a></p> <p> </p>
