(

Hygge /ˈh(y)ooɡə,ˈhooɡə/ (noun) A quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being. As we settle into autumn, we pull back to what makes us most comfortable: curling up with our favorite quilt by a crackling fireplace, watching the shimmering heat rise from a radiator while snow slowly falls outside our window, spending more of our time in the domestic spaces where we feel most secure and comfortable. It is that feeling of familiarity, of comfort, of home that Hygge explores. The artists of Hygge, Daniel Clark, Constance Culpepper, Kathleen Eastwood-Riaño, Don Miller, Amy Orr, Colin Pezzano, Ahmed Salvador, and Joe Sasarak all explore themes of home: its contents, its structure, and how it reflects upon our own identities. While each of the included artists use these ideas as launching points to deeper conversations of identity, memory, and value systems, their work is all undeniably full of hygge.

Plague, Amy Orr

AMY ORR Amy Orr is a multimedia artist whose work often involves the reinvention of manufactured materials; plastic and plastic cards in particular.

Previously a tenured professor, administrator, designer, and art publication editor, Orr is now a studio and street artist. She accepts commissions for portraits, logos and architectural installations.

JOE SASARAK Born in Rahway, NJ, Joe Sasarak currently lives and works in Philadelphia. He holds an MFA degree from Lesley Art+Design and a fine arts certificate from Parsons School of Design. He has exhibited in many countries, including Italy. Sasarak’s work can be traced back to his own personal history and experiences, yet rather than being personal symbols, it is a product of a collective memory that he shares with the viewer. Sculpting, painting, and photographing the miniature, he creates domestic interior scenes that examine the psychology of space and the ideas of self and other, queer identity, desire, love, loss, sanctuary and transcendence.
