Wonderfully uncanny\, murmurations are a warp and weft of singularity and collectivity\, each individual bird shaping the flock through a subtle attunement to adjacent birds that creates a synergistic whole. \nThis exhibition features the art of Co11ective\, a group formed in 2020 and made up of eight artists from New Jersey\, New York\, and Aruba who work across a broad range of media and styles including sculpture\, painting\, drawing\, photography\, creative writing\, video\, installation\, and interdisciplinary work. As a group of artists\, we consider what the phenomenon of murmuration can teach us about collaboration: How can we make a body of work that is both greater than the sum of its parts and true to our individual practice? Inspired by the concept of murmuration\, this group exhibition is comprised of individual pieces and collaborative works that come together as a whole.\n \n \n \n \n \n Co11ective Members \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Katrina Bello\nBerendina Buist\nJoseph Castronova\nNova Darkstar \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Frank May\nWes Sherman\nElie Porter Trubert\nKatie Truk \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Murmuration by Co11ective Events\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Artist Panel Discussion\nSaturday\, October 253:00-4:30pm \n\n\n\nExhibition walk through and discussion with the Co11ective artists of Murmuration. \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Group Critique\nSunday\, November 910:00am-12:00pm \n\nCritique by Co11ective artists of Murmuration.All artists ages 12+ are welcome! \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n These events are free and open to the public. \n  URL:https://ccabedminster.org/event/murmuration-by-co11ective/ LOCATION:The Center for Contemporary Art\, 2020 Burnt Mills Road\, Bedminster\, NJ\, 07921\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ccabedminster.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Trubert_Life-Cloud-1939-1974-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250926T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251207T140000 DTSTAMP:20260428T230713 CREATED:20250827T135517Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250827T135901Z UID:10000196-1758909600-1765116000@ccabedminster.org SUMMARY:Gabriella D’Italia: Getting Dressed in the Dark DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: September 26\, 2025 from 6-8pm \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n “I focus on time as a material phenomena in various media\, often drawing inspiration from the natural environment.

A former Home Economics teacher\, she has worked with batik and weaving which evolved into folk art quilts and a love of the modern art quilt movement. \nIn the late 90’s\, her work centered on abstract expressionism using dyed natural material and surface design\, creating gentle tonal contrasts and layers that interact with each other. Her method of direct cutting\, without the use of patterns\, was innovative at that time. Her work continues to evolve through experimentation. \nSince the early 2000s\, her work includes photography\, printed\, or transferred onto fabric\, paper or created and mixed media substrates. \nShe has created several innovative digital fiber techniques. Holographic Images presents multiple layered pieces of photographs printed on silk organza and borders of painted and surface designed fabrics. These pieces create a 3-D effect that moves as the viewer changes positions. \nWen continues to investigate the digital world\, but also imaginative presentations that add to the pioneering exploration of her media and give her work edge. \nShe splits her time from her home studio in New Hampshire and part time in North Carolina. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick here to read Wen Redmond’s Artist Statement. \n  URL:https://ccabedminster.org/event/wen-redmond-musings-memory-and-magic/ LOCATION:The Center for Contemporary Art\, 2020 Burnt Mills Road\, Bedminster\, NJ\, 07921\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibitions,Spring Solo Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ccabedminster.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/To-Make-Wonder-Again-300-copy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260417T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260607T140000 DTSTAMP:20260428T230713 CREATED:20260317T185513Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260428T183418Z UID:10000241-1776448800-1780840800@ccabedminster.org SUMMARY:Oxana Kovalchuk: Turning Point DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: April 17\, 2026 from 6-8pm \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOxana Kovalchuk is a New York–based visual artist born in Kazakhstan who earned her MFA from the School of Visual Arts in 2019.
