Maggie Genoble’s solo exhibition TOUCHY SUBJECTS is on view 👀 in the Richardson Family Art Gallery through the end of February ✨@maggiegenoblestudio is a senior Studio Art and Art History double major at Wofford College and the recipient of the 2023 Whetsell Fellowship, which supported the development of this exhibition. . . Touchy Subjects focuses on how the body occupies both a physical world and a digital world inseparable with the rise of internet use. The internet holds endless possibilities to reimagine and represent subjecthood. Physical bodies are denied that freedom as sites for projected desires and oppression. This notion of avatar building on the internet is undermined by how the patriarchy, capitalism, and consumerism may be amplified in digital spaces, while still allowing for the construction of a body not limited by physical constraints. By using the screen as a medium for creation instead of the apparatus for viewing, this shifts its function to reflecting or shielding the viewers’ gaze. Screens and fragmented bodies are scratched, scattered, manipulated, and performed to represent a post-human body, or a cyborg. These sculptures deny a fully-formed body and foreground destruction as a process of creation in an attempt to construct or reconstruct itself in a simultaneous state of digital and physical presence.

The building also features two glass sculptures by artist Dale Chiluly, created exclusively for this space.
