STONE'S THROW
ON BORDERS, BOUNDARIES, AND THE BEYOND

EXHIBITED FROM SEPTEMBER 18, 2018 - JANUARY 11, 2019
CURATED BY

Amy Bowman-McElhone
Carrie Fonder
​Felicia E. Gail
Art often emerges from, and contributes to, the movement of people, objects, and ideas across time and space and into the unfamiliar or unknown. These migratory acts generate dynamic and often chaotic arenas for the production of images and objects.


Stone’s Throw is a group exhibition of contemporary art that explores this movement in relation to the multivalent dynamics of borders as physical, geographical, political, corporeal, spiritual, cultural, and meta-physical boundaries. Featuring the work of Carlos Rolón, Candice Breitz, K. Yoland, Jaime Carrejo, Paul Valadez, Joshua Edwards, Skye Gilkerson, Ana Hušman, Yari Ostovany, and Lala Raščić.

​The exhibition explores border culture, the process of border-making, the transgression of borders and boundaries and how that impacts the formation of identities and the personal, spiritual, national, transnational, and gendered ideas of the self.

"We are very proud to bring these internationally recognized and extremely talented artists to Pensacola and the University of West Florida. This experiential exhibition thoughtfully explores the agency of borders in both intimate and expansive contexts."

The Experience UWF Downtown Lecture Series presented “Borders: A Conversation With Artists in Stone's Throw: On Borders, Boundaries and the Beyond," in association with the exhibition Stone's Throw, on Friday, September 21, 2018. 

How are borders constructed and how do we use them to derive meaning from the geographical, political and cultural contexts of our constructs? The "Stone’s Throw" exhibition will investigate these questions.

PANELISTS:
Exhibit Curators: Amy Bowman-McElhone, Carrie Fonder, and Felicia E. Gail
Exhibit Artists: Skye Gilkerson, Carlos Rolón, and K Yoland
This event was sponsored by the UWF College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities; UWF Equity & Diversity; Pensacola Museum of Art and is funded, in part, by the John C. Pace Symposium Series.
