Var Gallery is an artist collective and an exhibition space for emerging artist and performers in Milwaukee. This is Cristina and Erin’s first curatorial collaboration together. Cristina graduated from UW-Milwaukee in 2015 with a BFA in Inter-Arts and Technology. Erin graduated from MIAD in 2015 with BFA in photography.
