ON VIEW THRU SEPTEMBER 23, 2023: This exhibition features work by The G5 Collective, which is five artists united by a passion to create, but each ignited by different forces. Saran Alderson is inspired by the human body, with all of its eccentricities and fabulosities.  Through the lens of portraiture, Sarah Fisher records the human need to be authentically seen. Liz Gates is driven by a desire to create safe spaces for future generations. Visible color and inclusive graphic design practices fuels Ashita Sawhney‘s work. Doug Welsh is ignited by Mitch Pengra, his partner and muse, who is a constant source of love, inspiration and joy.

The G5 Collective is a Houston-based artist collective co-founded in 2020 by University of Houston MFA graduates Liz Gates and Doug Welsh, and named for the new UH graduate art school building and parking garage (G5).
