‘In Residence: 17th Edition’ Celebrates Work by Recent Resident Artists

Houston Center for Contemporary Craft (HCCC) is pleased to present In Residence: 17th Edition, an annual exhibition celebrating the Center’s Artist Residency Program, which has supported artists working in the field of craft for more than two decades. The show features works in fiber, clay, paper, and found objects by 2023-2024 resident artists Robert Hodge, Ann Johnson, Sarah Knight, Hai-Wen Lin, Qiqing Lin, Rebecca Padilla-Pipkin, and Terumi Saito.
 
The Artist Residency Program at HCCC provides local, regional, and international artists with a space for creative exploration, exchange, and collaboration with other artists, arts professionals, and the public. HCCC Curatorial Fellow Zaynab Hilal notes, “The Artist Residency Program offers artists the ideal opportunity to refine their craft while also trying their hand at new techniques. This exhibition features the prototypes, experiments, and meticulously crafted works of the 2023-2024 cohort. I am excited to present the diverse array of pieces that emerged from the artists' time in Houston, where they mingled, shared ideas, and drew inspiration from the city's culture.”
 
In Residence: 17th Edition was curated by HCCC Curatorial Fellow, Zaynab Hilal.
