GreenHill presents the 45th annual WINTERSHOW featuring emerging and established artists from across North Carolina.  This annual exhibition constitutes a comprehensive survey of contemporary works in all mediums that allows the public and collectors to discover the newest wave of NC artists and artworks.

This installation, presented in BMCM+AC’s lower gallery, explores the hyper-natural forces of attraction and repulsion informing our interactions with the landscapes we inhabit. From fence rows to scare-crows, DEER FREAKS documents the creative ways people propagate, shape, lure, and protect in their environments.  Swannatopia is a group of experimental artists headquartered in Swannanoa, NC and residing throughout the Southeastern United States. Over the past decade, they have set out to blur the lines between “artist” and “participant”, to defamiliarize the familiar, to nurture an immersive, whimsical, thoughtful, experience of empowerment and offer a glimpse of what is possible. To this end, Swannatopia’s “Experimental Art Club” launched in 2021.  An experiment in and of itself, the Experimental Art Club aims to facilitate the free exchange of knowledge, experience, tools and materials, while bringing the people together to “make stuff for fun!”. Today, the group’s multigenerational list of collaborators totals 50+. Swannatopia’s Experimental Art Club has presented numerous installations locally and regionally, including at BMCM+AC’s annual {Re}HAPPENING.
