“The original photograph is of my father in front of the family home in West Hollywood, California. Taking cues from pop art, surrealism, and contemporary portraiture, I use traditional painting techniques, digital tools [and] a variety of surface design processes … the entire surface is enhanced with contour stitching.”

“My father left Mexico five years before the rest of my family emigrated, sacrificing seeing his mother pass away and my birth so that our family would have the money to safely cross the border ... A parent’s love for their child is represented through the careful act of embroidery suspended and surrounded by a frantic need to hold the world together … This painting is tied to a wooden backing through sewn slipknots, it is not perfect, but it holds this world together.”

Carlie De Jesus Karetela, 2024

Oil on Canvas

At the heart of this nostalgic scene is the carabao (water buffalo), a stalwart symbol of Filipino agriculture and rural livelihoods … Through its role as the driving force behind the carriage, the carabao becomes … a metaphor for the resilience and endurance of Filipino culture. Together, the karetela and the carabao represent not only a mode of transportation but also a way of life deeply rooted in the Filipino experience, the rich tapestry of Filipino heritage, and the timeless beauty of cultural continuity.

“Exploring ideas of a mother: the nature of who we come from, who we are, and who we are meant to be. Divine or mortal, we are all connected through a lineage of mothers … we are put together in an order, sharing identities but also born to the possibility of being completely different than the flesh in which we came from.”

Kessley Durrant

Nuestra Virgen Tonantzin, 2023

Gold leaf, acrylic and Bible pages on canvas

48 x 36 inches / 122 x 91.5 cm

NFS

I have a special adoration for our Virgin Guadalupe … I am even named after her because she is such an important Goddess to (my Mexican / Catholic) culture … before she became Guadalupe, she was the Aztec Goddess Tonantzin. She changed so she could save her people, so I wanted to paint her remembering her true self and her sacrifices. There were … cultures in Mexico where the priestesses walked around topless, and it was seen as a sign of authority, power, and respect … She is crying gold because the Aztecs believed that the Gods were not able to bleed but were instead made of gold, which is why blood is so important to Aztec culture … I covered my canvas in pages of a Catholic Bible to help expound on the theme of the forced Christianization of the Indigenous.

$500

A defunct fountain, Out Of Order is composed primarily of wheel-thrown forms with a convoluted network of tubing … symbolizing the parasitic diversion of water resources from the Great Salt Lake … The lower bowl contains a hand-built American White Pelican facing the realities of his drought-ridden environment. Textures produced using the natural properties of expanding dried clay … evoke the wonderful and varying geological features of Utah … While this ecosystem intrinsically merits protection, its loss will also subject residents of the Wasatch Front to the adverse health effects of toxic dust blown from the dried lakebed.

Screens: A Self-Portrait

2024

Oil on panel

41 x 40 x 4 inches / 104.2 x 101.6 x 7.7 cm

$3,000

Through the lens of a self-portrait, I express the ache of separation from my daughter, separated by an ocean but tethered by technology, a poor conduit, and bound still by its limitations for authentic human interactions. As we try to define technology’s role in our lives, we experience the joy of seeing and hearing familiar voices that are far away and find simplicity and peace in unplugged moments.

$2,350

I draw/paint a series of independent image elements in Adobe Illustrator … once printed, the warp and weft images are sliced into 1/4” strips. I select a traditional hand-weaving pattern, then dress a self-modified loom. I hand weave the image, which yields a variety of distortion, pixelation, and jitter to the final composition.

Many dream of doing something that makes the world a better place. Often this begins with a large and nearly impossible mission of global scale. This work speaks to those who do small things to make life better, even if it’s just so the birds have a place to sing and the next generation has a shady place to rest.

Oil on canvas

$500

The Choi Hung Estate in Hong Kong is public housing, well known for its gorgeous rainbow facade. When I got there, the colorful basketball courts were filled with tourists … there were local kids waiting to play basketball … Despite the tourists’ lack of respect for the locals ... these two older ladies … didn’t seem to be bothered by the commotion … They looked so content to have each other’s company … this estate will be redeveloped … residents will be relocated, and the famous rainbow facade will be replaced. I wonder where these two ladies will be in 15 years.

I am drawn to certain … color combinations created using thin transparent layers of color opposites which, when blended optically, create a third glowing color that cannot be achieved through mixing opaque colors. The colors, poses, and compositional elements I choose are my pursuit of beauty and balance. There must always be an element of decay or imperfection. The figure cannot only be beautiful, just as nature is not always beautiful.

St. Christopher, 2023

Oil on wood panel

41 x 32 1/2 inches / 104.2 x 82.6 cm

$6,000

The schism between Eastern Orthodoxy and Western Catholicism has spawned distinct artistic traditions, with the East emphasizing iconography and the West realism. Before iconoclasm, St. Christopher was depicted as a dog-headed warrior in the East. This artwork seeks to harmonize these traditions, bridging my inner (religious) conflicts and showcasing the enduring quest for the divine, blending the mysticism of the East with the realism of the West.

While initially a personal project used to manage my anxiety … I took to the emptied streets (of Salt Lake City in March 2020) in search of photographs that produced feelings of peace and order amid the turmoil and chaos of the pandemic. I brought this source of creative, meditative relaxation to a wider audience … as both a therapeutic exercise and an artistic venture, I not only make this work for myself, but for others whose lives are affected by anxiety or related mental health conditions.

As I watched my grandmother’s health and life deteriorate, I reflected on her influence in my life (and) the interests and values I possess because of her: gardening, a love of birds, a desire to help things grow … my desires for progress and growth must also be balanced with a respect for the process of death and decay … in the cycle of life. As old things pass away, energy and space become available for new growth.

SLCC ART COMMITTEE

The planning and implementation of the annual President’s Art Show is just one way in which the SLCC Art Committee supports and encourages the arts throughout the College. We strive to enrich the College environment and inspire our students, faculty, and staff by collecting and exhibiting artworks that represent diverse cultures, thoughts, and expressions that embrace artistic and academic excellence. We develop, protect, display, and catalog the College’s Permanent Art Collection of nearly 700 works. Additionally, we program the College’s art gallery spaces including The George S. & Dolores Doré Eccles Gallery and LED Exhibition Wall in the Edna Runswick Taylor Foyer at our South City Campus. It is our goal to connect with the community by creating a platform for artistic dialogue and exchange, displaying the collection throughout seven campuses across the Salt Lake Valley, and curating exhibitions throughout the academic year.
