The School of Art Collection and Galleries at Kent State University are excited to exhibit "Problem Child," by Jamie Walters Kessler in the KSU Downtown Gallery located at 141 East Main Street, Kent, Ohio. The exhibit will take place Aug. 22 - Sept. 27, 2025, with a reception on Aug. 22, 5-7 p.m.
Jamie Walters Kessler is a contemporary post-conceptual artist with an interdisciplinary practice that incorporates thought experiments, object-making, art-actions, intervention, happenings, system-making, new media, sound, video and social practice. Her artistic practice examines and considers issues of social justice by re-imagining the connection between creativity and civic action. Kessler's practice is influenced by histories and methodologies of community organizing, democratic practices, collective action, protest culture and art-making as a form of both introspection and socio-political activism.
This exhibit is free and open to the public and has been brought to you with support from the Ohio Arts Council.
