This summer, Moore partners with Philadelphia Sculptors to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their annual 5 Into 1 presentation—a show that introduces the public to recent graduates of five area art schools including Moore, PAFA, Tyler, UArts, and UPenn. 

Join us in The Galleries for the opening reception on Friday, June 13 from 5–7 PM

I am honored to have represented PAFA in 2010 when I earned my MFA in sculpture and to participate in this milestone exhibition, summer 2025. Thank you to Leslie Kaufman for her devoted years of shining light on sculpture in Philadelphia and her collaborative curation with Gabrielle Lavin Suzenski, Exhibition Director of the Galleries at Moore College of Art & Design. Special thanks to Katie Dillon Low for her attentive care installing my ceramic sculpture.

This iteration exhibit recognizes this monumental occasion with an exhibition in three parts: the first of which is Moore's Biennial Alumni Invitational that centers on work by six artists who originally participated in 5 Into 1 at the time of their graduation. The second is a curated presentation of work by artists who 1) contributed sculptural work to the show over the years, 2) received either a BFA or MFA from any of the above-named schools, and 3) are currently exploring work-in-the-round in their contemporary studio practice. The third component is the final occurrence of the exhibition as it has existed historically to this day, representing all 5 schools for the last time. This moment allows space to reflect on the city's legacy as a thriving center of art/design higher education and gives Philadelphia Sculptors an opportunity to reimagine the future of its landscape.
