Janelle Iglesias is an assistant professor at the University of California, San Diego. She works with and through objects on site-responsive projects in a variety of contexts. Her individual practice is invested in the poetics, history, and agency of everyday things and materials. An alumna of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, her work has been supported by the Harpo, Joan Mitchell, Pollock-Krasner, and Jerome Foundations, the latter of which supported field research in the rainforests of West Papua on the constructions of bowerbirds.
Lisa Iglesias is an associate professor at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. Her independent work explores expansive histories and potentials of drawing and painting and takes into consideration the translation of patterns, images, and gestures across materials. Iglesias’s practice has been supported by the New York Film Acacdemy and residencies at the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center and the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, among others. Lisa divides her time between western Massachusetts and Queens, New York with travel projects in a variety of destinations, including recent long-term residences in the Dominican Republic, Finland, and Malta.
