Christina Foard, an established painter currently enrolled as an MFA degree candidate at UGA, explores the tabletop as a metaphor/arena for examining relationships, family, and politics. The artist often obscures areas of interest to ignite the viewer’s curiosity. Her abstractions push through domestic areas into wilderness zones like a messy picnic on a stormy day.

Jaime Bull, adjunct professor at the University of Georgia (UGA) and the Lyndon House Arts Center communications coordinator, also creates hand-sewn sculptures out of repurposed materials. Her enormous headless torsos are created from vintage bathing suits stuffed with plastic bags. Combined with soft sculptures representing giant oars and speedboats, Jaime’s celebratory work nods to Claes Oldenburg and his wife Coosje van Bruggen.

Erin McIntosh, Assistant professor at UNG, has created new paintings for RAUCOUS. A prolific artist guided by intuition, Erin’s media varies from watercolor to oils, and her subject matter often include biomorphic forms and imagery inspired by the complexity of nature.
