Trevor Amery
Gallery Artist in Residence While in residence at Art Produce, I will create an installation using geologic processes as social metaphors and points of inspiration for artworks, from the “wood wide web” and mycelium networks to dendrochronology and rock formation. I am interested in how external forces influence development and function and how relationships create our world. Learn more. |
Flavia D'Urso
Gallery Artist in Residence Flavia D’Urso’s practice grapples with the manifestations of the queer female body, through object and image making; working in video, installation, and sculpture. Throughout her time at Art Produce, D’Urso will be continuing an existing work, I Will Not Carry You, working with vessel forms and intentionally failing modes of reproduction as a means of pushing against expectations of the normalized “ideal” form. Over time the faulty yet persistent reproduction of these objects would fill the space; insistent, bodily, and decidedly deviating from the ideal form deemed to be “of use.” Learn More. |
Kaori Fukuyama
Gallery Artist in Residence Through engagement with the North Park community, I plan to collect photographic images and corresponding stories of North Park past. The collection of images will be transferred onto transparent colored surfaces and become part of a large-scale installation in the gallery. My hope is that the work will evoke a sense of nostalgia, transition, and the passage of time through interactions with light, and also celebrate our collective memories of the neighborhood.

May-ling Martinez
Gallery Artist in Residence I want to explore the gallery as a literal extension of my art studio practice - the perfect opportunity to share work in progress and my art making process. My approach will be very experimental and the work may fluctuate between 2-dimensional to sculptural and/or a site-specific installation. Learn more. |

Elizabeth Salaam
Cooler Room Artist in Residence I love you (I’m sorry) is an installation project involving large-scale handwritten stories and live writing performance centered around the act of breaking of silence and exposing secrets. Salaam uses the fragile and disposable properties of paper to pose questions about how we determine which stories matter, and how we honor the ones that do. Learn more. |

Lindsay Stewart
Cooler Room Artist in Residence I plan to use the Art Produce space to develop, share, and collaborate on a poetry manuscript that I am currently working on. The project is inspired by the blueprints to the house that I grew up in, with the sections of the book organized by the room or space in the house that I associate the included poems with.

Kim Sweeney
Cooler Room Artist in Residence How does food culture reveal the issues, perspectives, and aesthetics of the Asian American community? Through a series of gouache and oil paintings, I'll explore freshness/class, family recipes/tradition, and trends/fads in food to reveal the lived experiences and challenges immigrant communities face today. Learn more. |
Jennifer Vargas
Garden Artist in Residence During my residency, I will create a site specific sculpture in the garden, drawing inspiration from the garden and its growth. I will be exploring how the material interacts with light and shadow throughout the day, as well as how it relates to the existing garden. Its scale will be investigated so that the community can view it during the garden’s closure due to the ongoing pandemic. Learn more. |
Pasquale Verdicchio
Community Room Artist in Residence The visual language of our cities changes constantly, often erasing past expressions of inhabitance and history. My photographic project will document portions of North Park that retain expressions of what we might call a vernacular of place. Learn more. |
