Body to Body Reception and Artist Talk: Thursday, October 22, 2026, noon-2 p.m.
UNCP - Locklear Hall – A.D. Gallery

Body to Body (2026) brings together Ena Sungwon Byun, Jalen T. Jackson, Makayla Harrison and Wen Cheng, whose works explore how the body is shaped by intimacy, memory, culture, and ecology.

Across painting, photography, and installation, the artists draw from personal experience, inherited histories, and their connections to others and the world around them. Love is present here as care, attachment, belonging, and remembrance. The works move between personal and collective memory, questions of identity, ecological connection, and histories carried in and around the body. They return to these experiences through acts of remembering, caring, and reimagining.

Together, Body to Body reflects on how we come to understand ourselves through what we inherit, what we remember, and what we choose to hold onto.

They are currently completing their 2nd year in the MFA in Studio Art program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
