2023 Extreme Arts Final Presentations

HEMI/MICA Extreme Arts Program Final Presentations

Each year, students from the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) work with MICA faculty and JHU researchers as part of the HEMI/MICA Extreme Arts Program. Artists bring their unique perspectives to the problems and methods being explored by HEMI researchers, applying what they learn to their artistic practice.

This year, HEMI hosted three Extreme Arts interns:

  • Shan Deng (HEMI faculty host: Tyrel McQueen, MICA mentor: Liz Enz)
  • Mantis Harper-Blanco (HEMI faculty host: Kenneth Livi, MICA mentor: Giulia Livi)
  • Lianghong Ke (HEMI faculty host: Paulette Clancy, MICA mentor: Jay Gould)

Please join us for final presentations from these artists on Tuesday, Sept. 26. Presentations will be held in Malone Hall, Room 137 and will be followed by a light lunch reception.
