The Zygote Press Intern Showcase: Commonplace

Saturday, July 18, 2026
5:00 PM  8:00 PM
Zygote Press, 3907 Perkins Ave: In The Upstairs Gallery!

Our interns are the backbone of Zygote Press, each bringing distinct artistic practices, lived experiences, and fresh perspectives that enrich our community.

This exhibition explores the beauty of the overlooked and the everyday, drawing attention to mundane objects, unexpected encounters, unconscious creativity, unfiltered drafts, and imagined or shared worlds. Together, these works reveal how ordinary moments and processes can become sites of discovery, reflection, and transformation.

This show is organized by emerging curator Ciara Walker, who currently serves as Zygote Press’s Gallery Intern. The exhibition highlights the diverse voices and practices of this year’s intern cohort.

Participating Artists:
Emilie Bonsignore, Kenny Borsch, Paige Erickson, Emma Gatzulis, Kevin Kennelly, Stella Skinner, Allison Wiencek, Ciara Walker, Priscilla Yrad, and THE PRINCESS IS DEAD (Tyler Woody).
