MURMURATIONS
August 25 – November 1, 2025
DeVos Art Museum
The exhibition features thirty artists who participated in Nido (Italian for “nest”), an artist residency in Monte Castello di Vibio, a hill town in the Umbria region of Italy. The ongoing residency is facilitated by Poor Farm Experiment in Little Wolf, WI and hosted by the International Center for the Arts (ICARTS).
Included artworks highlight a wide range of subjects and a multitude of sensory approaches that distill, echo, reflect, and respond to a shared place-based experience and show how artist residencies serve as a site of research and play, connecting artists and ideas, fostering community, and laying the groundwork for new approaches to thinking and working, while rapidly transmitting culture.
Artists in the exhibition include Amber J. Anderson, Leslie Baum, Rachel Collier, Gianna Commito, Daisy Craddock, Bailey Fritz, Mary Griffin, Keeley Haftner, Kate Hampel, Mark Jeffery, Kelly Kaczynski, Arnold J. Kemp, Audrey Hynes Kilinski, Emily Lanctot, Amy Lang, Heather Lyon, Kristin Mariani, Jeffrey McMahon, Stephanie McMahon, Heather Mekkelson, Judd Morrissey, Jessica Mueller, Ruth L. Poor, Shawn Powell, Corrie Slawson, misael soto, Ann Stoddard, Simone Whiteley-Allen, Kevin Wixted, and Adrian Wong.
