Curatorial Projects

​Wedgespace - a Project at Southeast College, Eastside Campus

Wedgespace exhibited 40 shows in six years, between Sept 2013 and December 2019. Jesse Outlaw was the first and Orna Feinstein the last in this auspicious period of creativity at Southeast College, Eastside Campus at HCC, guided by the campus President, Irene Porcarello.
Below is an archive of projects curated with Houston artists in an unusually shaped room which had five walls, two doors, 7 windows, and carpet squares. An architectural oddity, Wedgespace was never lockedexcept when the campus building closed at night. It was a waiting room that had not found a purpose for a good five years. Wedgespace became a project space for visiting artists, students, faculty, and staff who could watch artworks revealed during the installation process. A different kind of public presentation, artists had to think through how to make work not too big and not too precious. 

Wedgespace grew out of the Southeast Artist-in-Residence (AIR) program, in operation for 5 years prior to Wedgespace's fruition because of seed money provided from the Southeast College President. With her financial support our SE Arts and Languages Department was able to curate projects for open areas of unconventional exhibition projects at the college. Via a faculty juried committee for project proposals, AIR introduced other academic departments to the the language of art. 

Alongside College President Dr Porcarello, early supporters of Wedgespace were Kevin Clement, Department Chair, and Pauline Warren, Dean of Artist and Illustrator, Sarah Welch supported AIR and Wedgespace during the reorganization of the five college system into one. Full-time faculty members at Southeast College, Justin Varner and Lisa Wildermuth, participated in the experiment as did multiple adjunct enthusiasts who boosted for meaningful events and projects to benefit teaching and learning at HCC and Houston.
