Joy Machine is excited to announce a joint exhibition with The Jaunt. Opening this week in Chicago, Ventus<\/a><\/em> features paintings, sculptures, and prints by Cody Hudson<\/a>, Seonna Hong<\/a> (previously<\/a>), Seth Pimentel<\/a>, Stevie Shao<\/a>, and Scott Sueme<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Founded and curated by Jeroen Smeets, The Jaunt<\/a> (previously<\/a>) is a travel project that sends artists around the world to experience new locations and cultures. Once they return home, artists create a limited-edition silkscreen print inspired by their journeys.<\/p>\n

Being outside our comfort zones heightens our senses and opens us up to new experiences and inspiration. The Jaunt is a gust of new perspective and energy that flows through artists\u2019 creative processes, allowing them to reorient and establish a new current.<\/p>\n

For Ventus<\/em>, Smeets gathered a group of artists who have each participated in the project, traveling to places like Shanghai, Mexico City, and Jeju Island, along with the towns of Shelton, Washington, and Joseph, Oregon. Each lets their experiences and observations lead as they create new artworks.<\/p>\n

Chicago has always been somewhat of a home away from home for The Jaunt. The very first exhibition was in the city, and over the years, amazing artists living and working in Chicago\u2013including Cody Hudson, David Heo, Liz Flores<\/a>, and others\u2013have participated. The Jaunt and Joy Machine are excited to partner and present these five artists, many of whom are showing here for the first time.<\/p>\n

Ventus<\/em> runs from June 13 to August 2. RSVP to the opening reception here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
