Leanna Yatcilla - “2002"
Leanna Yatcilla, an artist and illustrator, is currently a student
at Ithaca College pursuing double BFAs in Art and Theatre
Production + Design.
"This body of work is titled 2002, in reference to the year I
was born. Each piece is a reflection on a memorable loca-
tion of my childhood. A sense of place is very impactful and
present in my work. I express the vastness of the world as
seen through a child’s eyes by painting on a large scale. In
addition, each painting is compositionally oriented to be
inviting to the viewer. However, the viewer cannot actually
access these scenes in three dimensions, just as one cannot
fully walk into a memory again.

N7. The Kitchen Theatre 417 W State St.www.kitchentheatre.org yenospina.com Yen Ospina, Recent Works Yen Ospina is the daughter of Colombian-born immigrants who came to the United States in order to provide a better life for their child. As a proud BIPOC queer artist, Yen en- riches the lives of those around her through her unique and captivating work. A multi-talented artist, she creates in mul- tiple mediums and scales - from digital prints to community murals. Her work centers on themes of power, mysticism, and visibili- ty. She utilizes a core color palette of ochre, chocolate cin- namon red, earthy orange, and a deep dusty teal that makes her diverse body of work instantly recognizable as done in her hand. Ospina brings a sense of whimsy in her imagining of preternatural environments for her subjects to occupy. She gives viewers only enough context to spark their own curiosity and imagination. Ultimately, Yen Ospina creates her art to inspire inquiry and expand the viewer's subconscious assumptions of what feminine, queer, and diverse power looks like. 8.

Camaron Cohen
Camaron Cohen’s work focuses on personal spaces, objects,
and the self. These portraits capture unstaged glimpses of
space, place, and time in which the outsider does not gener-
ally have access. The hints of spaces and architecture be-
come the set, adding an important narrative quality, despite
ordinary moments captured.

March 4th, 202211.The Ink Shop Studio Gallery 330 E.State / MLK Street Ithaca, NY 14850 Hours: Tuesday to Friday 1-6 PM, Sat 12-4 PM Julianne Hunter | Ghost Collective Opening Reception: February 4th, 2022 5-8pm Showing: February 4th, 2022 - February 28th, 2022 The Ink Shop is proud to present Ghost Collective by the 2021-2022 Kahn Family Fellow, Julianne Hunter. The work included in this exhibition draws directly from the basic long- ing to create a sense of community and to foster relation- ships through collecting evidence of missed connections. The print shop is a collaborative space where one is a part of a select group of makers that pass down the knowledge of their skills. In the age of Covid-19, our ways of connect- ing with each other have been tested in unimaginable ways. Ghost Collective challenges contemporary limitations as opportunities for investigation, reflection and meditation. Common objects, familial relics, and discarded visual rem- nants are used to create forensic proof within the works, translated through screenprint, papermaking, cyanotype, and monotype. Made possible in part with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, administered by the Community Arts Partnership. 12. Hilton Garden Inn 130 E.
