Group exhibition with artists Ashely Beatty, Madelain Corbin, and Jeff Schofield

Opening Reception: Saturday May 18, 2019 from 6-9 PM

Popps Emporium, 2025 Carpenter, Detroit

Popps Emporium presents a group art exhibition, “(W)HERE”, showcasing sustainable artwork by three locally based artists, Ashley Beatty, Madelaine Corbin and Jeff Schofield.

“(W)HERE” features artwork expressing humanity’s complicated relationships with natural landscapes and urban terrains. This exhibition explores critical narratives about our globalized civilization that convey ecological concerns of life in the Anthropocene. While celebrating natural phenomena as essential elements of human existence, “(W)HERE” also explores human transgressions of both natural and constructed environments.
