URI Exhibition

Hera Gallery is excited to highlight artists from the 2020 URI Senior Seminar Online Catalogue, which is available now through our website! 


Elaina Smith: "The Dock/Seventeen/Fifty Dollars Plus Gas Money/How They Meet Again/DA(nger)BDA" 


"My initial ideas for the project revolved around invoking a sense of home, belonging, and nostalgia. Feeling sentimental is such a big part of my personality and I know for a lot of people, nostalgia is best invoked from the feeling of setting a record player into place and hearing the crackle before the first few notes ring out. I didn't actually have a record player growing up but I used to collect money from jukeboxes, which is basically the same thing, right?"
