Over the past year, the artists in the Fierce Shadow Unicorn Masterminds Artist Collective have experimented with new creative mediums and collaborations while sharing ideas and having discussions, jokes and laughter, and some moments of solemn serious real talk, all while making art. We’ve become good friends, dedicated artists, and continue to make new art and explore new directions every day, and every week. We keep returning to support each other and encourage each other to keep going. You get better as an artist by putting in the time and you learn and grow as a person by being with people who have your back and support you creatively. That’s what this exhibition is all about.

Throughout the months of July and August, ten artists aged 14 to 21 worked with lead artist and facilitator Chris Bose towards the development of a studio program for youth and the creation of their own art work. Themes of self-expression, materiality, and surface design emerged as key areas of interest and exploration, and this exhibition is the culmination of their independent and collaborative efforts to investigate how to express their own identity through art.
