Rachael Gorchov, a painter whose work spans a variety of media had her second solo exhibition with Owen James Gallery in New York in 2020. In 2021 she was an artist-in-residence at Yaddo. She is a founding member and co-director of Tiger Strikes Asteroid. Having received her BFA from Tyler School of Art and her MFA from Hunter College, she is currently Assistant Professor of Fine Arts at Northampton Community College. Her work and curatorial projects have been featured in Hyperallergic, Two Coats of Paint, and Philadelphia Inquirer. Originally from Philadelphia, Gorchov lives and works in New York City and Bethlehem, PA.
Jackie Hoving is an artist, curator and educator. She splits her time between Sag Harbor, NY and Brooklyn, NY where she finds inspiration for her work in both places. Hoving's large scale wall installations incorporate her own photographs, patterned paper, acrylic spray paint and collage. She has had several solo shows at Ripon College, Trestle Gallery in Brooklyn, NY, and Rebekah Templeton in Philadelphia. Her work is engaged in the concealing and revealing through patterns and layers, weaving together images to create a camouflaged, non-linear narrative. Her work has also been on view at Mana Contemporary in Chicago, Storefront Gallery in Brooklyn, Philadelphia International Airport, Hilbert Raum in Berlin and The Drawing Museum in Sweden. As a founding member of the Artist run space Tiger Strikes Asteroid Gallery in Brooklyn she has had the opportunity to curate several shows including “Magic Shell” and Night Flight”. Hoving is an accomplished educator who has taught for many years at Pratt Institute and Rhode Island School of Design. She has also been a guest critic at The Cooper Union, and given lectures about her work at Ripon College, Pratt Institute and the Artist Lecture Series in Brooklyn.
